Forecast discussion.
- Mild this week.
- A few showers and storms from Thursday into Friday night. I can’t rule out a few showers lingering into Saturday.
- Another chance of thunderstorms Monday and Tuesday. It is possible that system holds off until the middle of next week. I am monitoring the timing and trends.
- At this time, severe weather is not anticipated Thursday into Saturday. I will monitor next Monday and Tuesday. That system could have a bit more energy to work with.

Good morning, everyone.
We are waking up to patchy fog. A decent spring morning for the region. It will be mild today. No weather concerns other than this morning’s fog.
A series of systems will bring a chance of showers and thunderstorms back to the forecast Thursday and Friday. With a few showers lingering into Saturday.
Peak rain chances will likely arrive on Friday and Friday night.
At this time, we are not expecting any severe weather on Thursday, Friday, or Saturday. That is the good news.
I am watching next Monday and Tuesday. A few of those storms could be intense. Energy will be a bit higher with that system.
Some of the guidance holds that the system off until Tuesday into Thursday. Other data shows storm chances returning Monday and Tuesday. I will know more over the coming days.
Temperatures will be mild. The warmest days will likely be next Monday and Tuesday. Some locations could actually hit the middle 80s early next week!
Here is the Monday temperature forecast. That will certainly feel nice.
