Rainy Today But A Nice Mild Weekend For Easter Sunday!!!

HELLOOOOOOOOO LOL It is a wet start to the day this morning. Yes, we will be seeing this rainy mess through out much of the day today. Good news is we should not see any big thunderstorms however a slight rumble is possible. Now rainfall is something we will have a lot of! We will see rainfall when all is said and done between a Half inch to an inch possible. Also another thing we will watch today along with our heavy rainfall is going to be some Gusty winds. We will look for winds between 20 and 25 mph with a few gusts to 30 maybe even 35 mph at times. Yes, I'M telling you all to really hold on to your hats and umbrellas as you head out today. :) I do have some news that will help to brighten up your wet day! And the good news is.

SUNNY MILD WEATHER FOR THE WEEKEND!!!!!


I know I know I'M pumped up today lol. Really we will see this rain push off later on this evening and the sunny skies will move in for Saturday. Take a look at your weekend weather outlook. And your (Easter Outlook)We will see highs on Saturday of around 57* degrees and even more mild on Easter Sunday with highs around 61* degrees! How does that sound???? This will be great weather for all the area kids to get out and start searching for those eggs the Easter Bunny will hide. I'M calling for lots of goodies that is for sure ;) Nature could not be giving us a better holiday setup that is also for sure. So a nice weekend however we will see more rain move (Back) in again by Monday. This wet weather just won't give up lol. But at least we will see nice weather for the holiday! We can't ask for much more then that! Now we will be watching the rivers as well. Here is a quick massage from the National Weather Service I have posted for you all below...

Justin, thanks for the update.

I agree Brow, I am working during the week and miss all the nice weather, seems the bad wx has been a weekend trend for the last couple of months.

Home sick today with the crud, glad its rainy, I have been resting to the sound of soft rain hitting the windows.

I did hear thunder early this morning, long low rumbles, sounded nice.
