COLD NIGHT, WARMER DAYS: Another cold night is ahead; we figure most places will land somewhere between 20 and 25 degrees by daybreak, but colder valleys will be in the teens with a clear sky and light wind.
A nice warming trend begins tomorrow, which will last through the weekend. Dry air means no rain through Saturday. We are expecting low 50s tomorrow, low 60s Wednesday, low 70s Thursday, and mid 70s Friday. By Saturday afternoon we should be in the upper 70s, with some places flirting with 80 degrees. For Sunday, looks like most of the state will stay dry, although a few isolated showers could show up near the Mississippi border.
NEXT RAIN: At this time it looks like the next decent rain event will come late Monday, Monday night, or Tuesday of next week.
VOODOO COUNTRY: Still no sign of any severe weather threat through mid-month on the 12Z GFS, but we all know that could change in a heartbeat this time of the year.
WEATHER BRAINS: Don’t forget you can listen to our weekly 30 minute netcast anytime on the web, or on iTunes.
