...SOGGY START TO WEDNESDAY... [11.5.24 4:23 P.M.] Good afternoon all. It's been a little on the breezy side today but the good news is that temperatures have been very nice as we've been in the mid 70's most of the day. As we start to get into this evening we'll see rain showers develop and become rather steady into the overnight hours. Rain should get out of here near lunchtime on Wednesday but a stray shower could pop-up even into the evening hours. We will a cool down the close out the week before rain chances return for the last part of the weekend. Tonight: Rain developing near midnight. Low 62. The chance of rain is 100%. Wednesday: Rain in the morning. High 71. The chance of rain is 80%. Wednesday night: Mostly cloudy with a stray shower possible in the evening. Low 45. The chance of rain is 10%. Thursday: Mostly sunny. High 62. Thursday night: Mostly clear. Low 35. Have a great evening! -Joe

...SOME MUCH NEEDED RAIN... [11.4.24 4:41 P.M.] Good afternoon everyone. It's been a very nice day outside as we're managed to climb into the 70's across the area. We'll see more of the same tomorrow with breezy conditions before we see rain tomorrow night. Rain will impact the area and everyone is going to get something so that's a huge positive. As for tonight, there are some showers to our west that could potentially give us some wet roads at most. Not very impressed honestly though I hope I'm wrong. After the rain wraps up Tuesday night and Wednesday we'll see temperatures fall back into the low to mid 60's and we'll likely be there for a while. No big cool downs at least through Veteran's Day at this point! Tonight: Mostly cloudy with a stray shower possible. Low 58. Tuesday: Mostly cloudy with clearing later in the morning. High 78. Tuesday night: Rain likely. Low 58. The chance of rain is 100%. Wednesday: Rain likely before noon then cloudy. High 69. The chance of rain is 70%. Wednesday night: Partly cloudy with a stray shower possible. Low 44. The chance of rain is 10%. Have a great evening! -Joe

...PLENTY OF BLUE SKIES AND SUNSHINE... [10.27.24 4:30 P.M.] Another fantastic day across the area. Even region wide. Highs almost reached 60 today. We will see about a 10 degree increase in temperatures tomorrow. Near record highs on Tuesday and Wednesday. A cold front will move through the area on Thursday (Halloween) and bring us a good chance of showers to the area. Behind the front. Cooler and drier conditions will return on Friday. Tonight: Clear and chilly. Low 30. Monday: Sunny. Warmer. High 68. Monday night: Cloudy and not as cold. Low 52. Tuesday: Partly sunny and mild. High 80. Tuesday night: Partly cloudy and mild. Low 56. Have a great evening! -Michael

...JUST A LITTLE COOLDOWN... [10.25.24 4:38 P.M.] Good afternoon everyone! A decent portion of our coverage area got at least some sort of rain this morning. This really prevented us from getting into the 70's today with partly sunny skies. As we get into this evening there is a chance of some more showers but the feeling is most of the activity remains south of I-70. Saturday and Sunday will be sunny, but much cooler with highs staying right about 60 degrees. Then as we get into the start of next week look for temperatures to start ticking up. I'm still watching later next week for some pretty decent rain chances. Still a long way out but definitely note-worthy with Thursday being Halloween. Tonight: Mostly cloudy with a chance of showers before midnight. Low 41. The chance of rain is 20%. Saturday: Mostly sunny. High 61. Saturday night: Mostly clear. Low 30. Sunday: Clear and sunny. High 60. Sunday night: Clear. Low 32. Have a great evening! -Joe

***SPECIAL WEATHER STATEMENT*** [10.25.24 8:00 A.M.] Good morning! as mentioned last night there was a chance of rain this morning and that has played out. Models hinted at us possibly getting an early morning rain and that has played out, at least in the northern tier of the coverage area. This line was 'supposed' to weaken however has gotten a little stronger and resulted in pretty heavy rainfall and even some thunder and lightning. Up here got some sort of hail/grapple mix but just be alert as this system moves across the region this morning. There will be a pretty good shot at rain again later today after this passes through. Biggest concern will be traveling as you may see some quick ponding on the roadways and with this being the first rain in a while roads might be a little slick. -Joe

...MAYBE A LITTLE RAIN TODAY... [10.25.24 6:53 A.M.] A band of showers and thunderstorms to the northwest this morning is expected weaken as it gets closer to our coverage area. It will be moving into drier air. Some areas might get lucky and see some of the rain the further north and west you are. A cold front will swing through the state later today. This will bring an end to any chances of rain for our area. The weekend will be sunny and cool. Looking a little ahead into the end of next week. Models are showing us getting into more of an active pattern compared to the past few weeks. Today: Becoming cloudy with a chance of showers and an isolated thunderstorm is also possible this morning. Mainly west of I-71 and north of I-70. Otherwise, cloudy. High 71. Chance of rain is 40%. Tonight: Cloudy. Low 40. Saturday: Partly to mostly sunny. Cooler. High 60. Saturday night: Clear and cold. Low 29. Sunday: Sunny and cool. High 58. Have a great Friday! Keep your fingers crossed for a little rain today. -Michael

...COOLING OFF BUT NOT FOR LONG... [10.23.24 4:59 P.M.] Good afternoon all. Today started nice and sunny but as we're progressed towards the evening the skies have become mostly cloudy. In fact you can see the cold front on radar as there is a smaller line of showers/sprinkles. While we will cool off tomorrow we should rebound into the lower 70's on Friday. We still have a minor chance of some showers on Friday afternoon/evening but as Michael mentioned, not much will fall. Saturday and Sunday both look to be beautiful fall days with highs around 60 and then the warmth returns for Monday, Tuesday, and Wednesday. Tonight: Mostly cloudy with some clearing late. A few sprinkles possible. Low 36. Thursday: Partly sunny. High 62. Thursday night: Mostly clear. Low 35. Friday: Partly sunny with showers possible in the afternoon. High 70. The chance of rain is 30%. Friday night: Mostly cloudy with a chance of showers in the evening. Low 42. The chance of rain is 30%. Have a great evening! -Joe

...PLENTY OF SUNSHINE AND PLEASANT TEMPERATURES... [10.19.24 8:25 A.M.] A little light frost out there this morning. Not as bad compared to past mornings where we were in the mid 20's with a hard freeze across most of the area. High pressure will keep control of our weather through midweek before a strong cold front moves into the area. Right now models have backed off on the rain chances with this front. Something we do we need is more rain. Behind this cold front. Temperatures will tumble once again below normal by the end of the upcoming work week. **Due to the quiet nature of the weather. There will be no forecast issued this evening. A brand new forecast will be issued tomorrow morning** Today: Areas of patchy frost this morning. Otherwise, sunny and pleasant. High 71. Tonight: Clear. Low 39. Sunday: Sunny and pleasant. High 73. Sunday night: Clear and not as cold. Low 43. Monday: Sunny and mild. High 76. Have a great Saturday! -Michael

...THE CHILL HAS ARRIVED... [10.15.24 4:32 P.M.] Good afternoon all. It's been a pretty cruddy day as we've remained in the upper 40's, maybe 50 in some locations. To add to it...it's been pretty wet as rounds of showers have passed through our region. As we head into this evening we'll start to dry out and should remain dry over the next several days. There is some good news as we'll warm back up this weekend. As for tonight, we are under a Freeze Warning so cover those plants or bring them in. What doesn't get hurt tonight will definitely get it tomorrow night as everyone will easily drop into the upper 20's overnight. As mentioned, by the time we get to Friday we'll be back into the mid 60's and the 70's for the weekend. Tonight: A few showers possible this evening with clearing overnight. Low 30. Wednesday: Clear and sunny. High 55. Wednesday night: Mostly clear. Low 28. Thursday: Clear and sunny. High 61. Thursday night: Mostly clear. Low 33. Have a great evening! -Joe

...FIRST FREEZE?... [10.14.24 4:25 P.M.] Good afternoon all! It's not been the best of days across the region as we've struggled to get into the 50's. To add insult to injury there are showers starting to show up on radar to our west and we'll possibly see a freeze overnight Wednesday into Thursday. There is good news though as we'll be back into the lower 70's for the weekend so those with the kiddos in sports should be able to enjoy the weekend! Tonight: Mostly cloudy with a chance of showers. Low 37. The chance of rain is 30%. Tuesday: Mostly cloudy with a chance of showers. High 51. The chance of rain is 40%. Tuesday night: Partly cloudy. Low 31. Wednesday: Mostly sunny. High 52.

...COOLING OFF... [10.12.24 7:41 P.M.] Good evening everyone. It was a little bit of a mixed bag today as highs did get into the lower 70's but we did see some clouds, sun, and rain across the region early this afternoon. As we head into the overnight we do have a shot at a few showers but most of the energy looks to remain north. We'll see more of the same tomorrow until about lunch time when we should settle back in with mostly sunny skies. The catch for tomorrow will be the breezy conditions in the afternoon as the front pushes through. Behind this front we are going to feel the fall weather settle into the region. Highs in the 50's and lows near freezing are slated for next week. Frost is going to be likely each night starting Monday night. Tonight: Partly cloudy with a chance of showers and a thunderstorm after midnight. Low 57. The chance of rain is 30%.
