Good Sunday, everybody. As we put the wraps on the final weekend of February, we continue to look ahead toward the fickle month of March. It’s a month where you can go from severe weather and 70s to snow and 30s in the same day. Will this one be any different? We will take a little look into the first half of the month.
We begin with what’s happening out there today. A quick-hitting system is pushing across far southern Kentucky to start things out and that may produce a little light rain or light snow. That moves away VERY quickly this morning, but your radars are standing by to follow whatever shows up…
Skies become partly to mostly sunny for the entire region with temps reaching the upper 40s to low 50s. Overall, this is a pretty nice weather day.
Monday is similar to put the wraps on a wild month of February. March then rolls in like a lamb with partly sunny skies and temps ranging from the upper 50s to middle 60s…
The numbers try to make a run at 70 by the end of the week…
A surge into the 70s is then possible next weekend…
That would be ahead of a potent storm plains storm system that would drag a cold front in here with an increasing threat for showers and storms. That likely kicks off a very active second week of March…
There’s a good signal for heavy rain during this time.
The GFS is showing the concern with well above normal precipitation during this time…
That indicates where we have a battle between spring trying to take control, but winter not wanting to give up. As a matter of fact, indications are that winter does try to flex later in week two. Check out the big dip showing up on all the ensembles…

Have a great Sunday and take care.
Just the usual ups and downs it looks like. I’m here for it. 😉
I don’t think March will be any different than February, but maybe some warmer days ?
Avg. temps in March 50’s.
At least this week is going to be dry & warm.
A great time to go outside and catch up on some outdoor maintenance,before the rain sets back in.
Still hoping for a big snowstorm sometime in March here in the Chicago area.
Late in the second week of March could be worth keeping an eye out for one!
I Remember Many of those Mega March Snowstorms.
looks like a good week to give my new truck a good ol’ handwashing & waxing 🙂 #teamspring #teamsummer
Sounds Like A Plan About to become Reality.
Like your handwashing commet.
