Good Friday everyone. We are coming off a VERY active weather day across the state as Thursday into early this morning featured flooding rains and severe storms. Things are calming down and cooling down across the area today.

I wanted to give you a quickie look ahead as we have another active storm set to move in late this weekend into Monday.

In the short term… temps today will fall into the upper 30s and low 40s and stay there into the afternoon. Saturday looks like a good day with partly sunny skies and temps bouncing into the low 50s.

Another powerhouse low will develop in the plains states on Sunday and slowly work toward the Great Lakes by Monday. As warmer air lifts northward into the state Sunday… scattered showers and thunderstorms will try to develop…

GFS Sunday Afternoon


Monday Morning


As the low deepens and heads into the lakes… it will drag a strong cold front through the state Monday. This will likely have a potent line of heavy rain producing showers and storms with it. This may spawn some strong or severe storms once again and is something we will be watching for.

Given the saturated ground from the current rains… it won’t take much rain to cause some more high water issues. Oh… gusty winds will also be noted. Busy enough for you?

I will update things later today. Until then… enjoy your Friday and take care.
