Good Saturday to one and all and welcome to the weekend. Our cold front crossed through the region overnight with a round of showers and thunderstorms for many. This front will clear the skies out for Today as some cooler air moves into town for a great start to the weekend. While we have warmer days ahead into early next week. The signal is clear on spring not being ready to lock in yet.
In the short term… morning clouds will settle southward as the front sags into Tennessee. Skies will become partly to mostly sunny across the area as temps hang out around 60 for afternoon highs. This front will then start to work back to the north tonight as warmer air surges back our way. Scattered showers and thunderstorms should crank up on the nose of this mild air into late tonight and Sunday. Some of these will get started later today to our south and southwest today and you can track those here…
Follow the temps…
Current Temps
Monday into Tuesday should be very warm days as temps head back into the 70s with breezy conditions and the threat for an isolated shower or thunderstorm.
A bigger storm system will begin to develop across the plains states by Tuesday and will roll eastward into the Ohio Valley by Wednesday. This will increase the chances for rain and thunderstorms and we will have to watch for a strong storm or two.
The big news is what comes in behind this storm as a chilly pattern is going to take hold for the end of next week. As a matter of fact… this is one that can produce some snowflakes next Thursday or Friday. Check out the amount of cold showing up on the European Model…
Remember a few weeks ago when I talked about the blocking showing up for the end of the month with a negative NAO? Well… this is the end result and the GFS Ensembles suggest the chill tries to hang tight for a while in the eastern part of the country…
That is just ugly and here is hoping for it to bust badly over the next few weeks. That said… I have to agree that we have not seen our last big blast of chill. 
Have a great Saturday and take care.

That forecast doesn’t look good for my spring break (March 28-April 1) up here in Indiana. Last year we got in the 80s for my spring break!
Hopefully it will be clear this evening for the big moon event.
Thanks,Chris. Not what I wanted to hear, but, I guess we will take what we get. In the meantime, I am going to enjoy what we have! One sure way to know Spring is not too far away….had oru first charcoal grilled hamburgers of the year last night…always good, but there is just something about that first one of the year that makes it special! Yummy!
Everyone be sure to chcek out the full moon tonight, closest its been in 18 years. Supposed to be really big!
I’m anxious for that big show too MikeM!! I have plans for dinner and the Blues tonight! Throw the super moon in the mix and out comes a perfect evening!!!
What a beautiful day.All I have to say is KY RULES WV DROOLS!!!!!!!
Yet another beautiful springlike day in the bluegrass!! Sunshine and 66 degrees! Topped off with a wildcat win!!!!
Where is that darn dislike button, I choose to dislike the COLD spell coming.
great game between 2 evenly matched teams and the thing that gets me is the officiating kind of went wva’s way if you will, especially in the first half or put it this way, the 2nd half of the first half.
i am a wva fan but when you get beat, you get beat. no excuses. now as mr. bailey said on twitter, lets root for those eagles.
good luck to kentucky next week as more than likely they will have a very tall task to tackle as in ohio state!!!!!!!! unless of course ohio state gets upset on sunday which is not likely to happen.
the ncaa tourney always seems to bring out the best in kentucky. go big blue!!!!!!!!!!
Does anyone know when the Moon thing is?I went outside and can’t even see the Moon and it has been sunny all day.Thoughts anyone?
This super moon is cool, but weird at the same time. 🙂
I have a video blog update over on my blog for those interested.
This is a long waited concept and every one is desperately waiting for it. Thanks for the review and update as well.!!
I really appreciate your professional approach. These are pieces of very useful information that will be of great use for me in future.
