Enjoy Today; Very Busy Times Coming…Let’s get the easy and good stuff out of the way first- today will feature simply stunning weather conditions across the region. Wall-to-wall sunshine and temperatures climbing into the middle 60s after a chilly start! Enjoy!
A warm front will lift through the state late tonight and Thursday morning. This may help ignite scattered thunderstorms early Thursday morning. We’ll then see a “lull” in the action before additional waves of thunderstorms rumble in during the afternoon and evening. Some of these storms may reach severe limits with hail and damaging straight line winds of greatest concern.
A secondary area of low pressure will slowly traverse the Ohio Valley Friday and deliver widespread moderate to heavy rain. As the low scoots to our east, it’ll help pull much colder air into the area. Temperatures will fall through the day and rain will begin to mix with wet snow Friday night. While we won’t deal with accumulation here, areas from northern Indiana over to northern Ohio may pick up a light slushy accumulation of snow.
We’ll clear things out just in time for Saturday, but it’ll be a cool and breezy day, especially early. Most of Easter Sunday will also feature sunny and pleasant conditions, but moisture will increase late and we’ll mention the chance of showers by evening.
Early next week is back to the active regime with multiple waves of showers and thunderstorms Monday and Tuesday. Heavy rainfall and embedded strong to severe thunderstorms will be possible.
