Blocky Pattern Leads To Drier, Cooler Stretch; Looking Ahead To A Return Of Active Times…

Updated 04.26.22 @ 5:30a

Now that our cold front is to our east, it’s time to look ahead to the next weather maker. Headlines over the next 48 hours will come from patchy frost potential (or “widespread” if north of the city, itself).

Weak systems will try and push into the Ohio Valley over the next 72 hours but most, if not all, of these systems should run into a drier, more stable airmass, locally and a rather significant weakening of any sort of organized areas of rain.

There will be times of mostly cloudy conditions and light shower chances midweek but most, if not all, of any sort of “organized” rain chances will hold off until the weekend. What at times will look like appreciable rain heading in our direction will diminish in significant fashion as it pushes east into the region. The blocking pattern will breakdown and allow more organized rain and storm chances to enter the picture from the west this weekend.

Rain and storm chances should increase in earnest Saturday night into Sunday morning, including the potential of locally heavy downpours.

Another storm system awaits on deck for a Sunday evening and Monday morning arrival…

More on this and more in this evening’s client video update.
