Good Thursday, folks. The extreme winds of last night are moving away but things remain windy out there today. As we look ahead, we find the overall pattern staying busy with some wild temp swings showing up over the next few weeks.
Those winds of Wednesday into Wednesday night were every bit as high as advertised. Some areas hit 70mph with gusts with widespread 50mph gusts for most of the state.
Those winds today will continue to gust to 30-35mph at times as our low wraps up in the Great Lakes. Morning showers give way to a period of sun and clouds before more showers move in from west to east this afternoon and evening. Here are your radars to follow along…
Chillier winds will take over today as a northwest flow kicks in later tonight and early Friday. That’s when some backwash showers show up and there’s even the chance for a few snowflakes to enter the picture Friday morning…
That’s how we roll on the first day of April!!
Another fast-moving system will then move through here later Saturday and should touch off some gusty showers…
Temps should rebound quickly behind that for Sunday and Monday as some fairly nice weather shows up. Behind that comes another storm system set to bring gusty winds and more showers and storms by the middle of the week…
That’s being pushed by another massive trough digging into the eastern half of the country…
That has some very cold temps and could even bring a flake or two with it.
That trough pulls out fairly quickly with a ridge replacing it a few days later…
That tries to flex a little more a few days after that…
Some warmer than normal temps would be noted during that time. It’s also a pattern that may portend a fairly active severe weather setup around here.
Have a great Thursday and take care.

I like to thank all the folks who decided to plant or let a wild tree grow under or along a power line. lol
Every time the wind blows above 50mph I lose my electric.
We Have that Same Problem here in Maple. Lots of Trees around My Home and Around and Under the Power Lines. I Wish the Electrical and Communication Companies would Bury their Lines, but that would be quite an undertaking.

Did Not Mean To Post the Above Twice. LOL
Thanks Chris, Right On with Your Forecast on this Past Weather Event. Good Work !
Yesterday, We had a high Temperature of 82 degrees And a Peek Wind Gust of 47 mph.
Precipitation around 0.35 of an inch in the Last 48 hours. Much Needed Rain to Cancel the Red Flag Warning.
Looks like Next Week another Repeat ?
