And for those who celebrate it, happy Good Friday (this is why I never actually open my posts with 'Good Friday all'). Today is going to get progressively worse the longer you wait. Granted, highs will be in the MID 60s! But by tonight, it's going to be pouring, and as much as 1 inch of rain is possible. The odds that a town will get this amount is greater than 30%...so the STORM WARNING is up for tonight. Granted, I think many will fall just short and pick up around 0.8" of rain or so...but that's still plenty. Tomorrow looks fine, albeit really cold with highs struggling to reach 50. Easter looks much the same, but Sunday night some snow, yes SNOW moves in, and there's an outside chance of a light accumulation as a clipper moves through. In any event, next week looks just awful, as the middle three days of the week look very wet and very cold with highs in the mid-40s.
Enjoy your holiday weekend- I'll see you on Monday!
Today in weather history- April 3, 1974- The legendary "Super Outbreak" occurs as a monster tornado outbreak occurs. A ridiculous THIRTY tornadoes are rated either F4 or F5, and 7 are F5s, which generally only occur once every year and a half and 319 people are killed. In all, 148 tornadoes occurred on this day, establishing the all time record. Incredibly, this record was broken in 2011, but I'll have more details on that on April 27.
