Seven-day outlook graphic.

Good morning, everyone.

I hope you had a nice weekend.

We did have some severe weather on Saturday night and Sunday morning.

We had a few severe thunderstorm warnings Saturday afternoon and night, as well. All in all, that event was a low-end event for our region. There were no tornadoes, thankfully.

The Sunday morning event was a bit more serious in some counties. We had a surprise line of storms early Sunday morning over portions of southern Illinois and northwest Kentucky. It did some wind damage in some counties. Trees and power lines were downed.

I did not expect that early Sunday morning event.

It will be calm today through Thursday.

We will have gusty winds today and tomorrow. Winds may gust above 25 mph from time to time. That might mess with some Halloween decorations.

Here are this afternoon’s wind gusts.

Here is what tomorrow looks like.

We will have some chilly mornings over the coming days.

The coolest mornings will likely be on Wednesday and Thursday.

Areas that tend to be colder could dip into the upper 30s.

Here are the Wednesday morning low temperatures.

Thursday morning lows

I am monitoring rain chances late Thursday night into Sunday. Peak chances will likely be on Friday night into Sunday.

At this time, this is how the rain totals are shaping up.

This event is still a few days away. Adjustments are likely.

We have a new service to complement your www.weathertalk.com subscription. This does NOTreplace 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 ifyour 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.
