Good morning, everyone!

I was sick yesterday.  Sorry about that.  I was not able to update the weather.

We certainly did have a lot of wind from that deep area of low pressure that moved to our north.  Some locations topped 40 mph!

Some of you received a mixture of non-impactful sleet and snow.  Mixed with rain!  March is doing March things.

Just a reminder of how changeable our weather can be during this time of the year.

Today will be calm and quiet.  No weather concerns.

A week cold front will push into the region Friday with clouds and isolated showers.  Gusty winds, at times.

Peak rain chances will be in southern Illinois and northwest Kentucky.  Rainfall totals of 0.00″ to 0.10″ are anticipated.  Many areas may simply remain dry.

This front does not have a lot of moisture to work with.

Saturday and Sunday will be dry.

A slow warming trend begins on Sunday, and that will take us into next week.

As a matter of fact, a few 70s are possible as early as Tuesday!  A few showers by Wednesday.

I am watching another system around the 15th.

Here is the NAM 3K future-cast radar.

Double-click the animation to enlarge it.

The timestamp (upper left) is in Zulu.  12z=6 am. 18z=12 pm. 00z=6 pm.

You can see the line of showers and thunderstorms racing across our region on Tuesday.

** NEW SERVICE **  I have partnered with WeatherCall to bring you an added layer of protection.
.
We have a new service to complement your www.weathertalk.com subscription.  This does NOT replace www.weathertalk.com It is simply another tool for you to receive severe weather information.
.
I use it myself. I encourage everyone to have 3 to 5 ways of receiving their severe weather information. All sources can fail, and the more sources you have, the better prepared you will be in the event of severe weather warnings.
.
WeatherCall will call your cell phone or home number if your home is under a tornado or severe thunderstorm warning.  It only calls you if your home is inside the warning box/polygon. If you are outside the warning box/polygon it will not disturb you.
Here is a video with more information and a demonstration of how it works.
