4/7 - 7:30pm - Spring is Returning!

You may think that the title for this blog entry is misleading based on the fact that we're under a Freeze WARNING tonight, but it really will begin warming up starting tomorrow. After a low around freezing tonight, we'll top out around 60 tomorrow with a few morning sprinkles possible. Rounds of thunderstorms look likely starting late Thursday afternoon and continuing until Friday evening, with highs in the lower 60's for both days.

The weekend looks great, with lower 60's on Saturday and mid 60's on Sunday. Easter egg hunts shouldn't have any weather problems with sunny skies sticking around. Rain comes back into the area for early next week as low pressure moves into the area.

Thundersnow? In the middle of April!? That's right, early this morning a band of snow showers between Crawford County, IN and Hardin County, KY became convective and started putting down heavy snow. Lightning and thunder was reported in Brandenburg.


(Notice the yellow areas on this radar snapshot this morning... thundersnow!)
