Today. We will see highs in the low 40s with Partly cloudy skies. Light winds between 10 and 15 mph. Nice and calm and good weather to get out and fire up the grill! Lows in the low 20s.
Wednesday. Mostly cloudy maybe a few peaks of sun. Highs will be in the high 40s to low 50s. Winds will be a little higher between 15 and 20 mph with a few gusts to 25 mph at times. Lows in the mid 20s.
Thursday. Rain will be back in the forecast with highs in the low 50s. Rain currently is expected to start around 10am or 11am Thursday. Current expected rainfall is between a quarter inch to a half inch possible. We will watch for possible higher amount as we get closer.
Extended Outlook. We will cool down to the 30s again by this weekend but don't get bummed out! It is that time of year where we go up and down and we will rise temperature wise again. However we do have a few light snow flurries back in the forecast for this weekend but we will talk more about that later for now let's just enjoy our MILD temperatures for the next few days. We will be above average but once again....................
That's right warm weather lovers you get to go out and enjoy for a little while and even get ready to track some RAIN! First off what a day it was yesterday! Right? It was just bright and beautiful out! Nice and sunny with the BIG BLUE! That's what I like to call it! I think the Best day is when it is blue skies with some puffy Cumulus clouds! And that is just what we seen.....Well, to start things off today we will see another GREAT day with as you see above mild temperatures expected to be around 40* degrees which is right around five degrees above average for this time of year. And Partly cloudy skies. You see our fair weather friend will try to stick with us.....There is still a slight bit of snow on the ground however I think it is safe to say that it will be all gone by the time today is over! ;)
Now for the rain I started to talk about at the top of this post! Well, I do see rain in the forecast for Thursday sometime after 10:AM or 11:AM. Now we will keep watching the rainfall amounts closely as well as the timing but for now I think rainfall will be between a quarter and a half inch possible. If amounts change I will let you know. Now I don't see anything severe with this system but there is the chance for a few thunderstorms or rumbles if you will with the system. I will keep you posted as we get closer. For now we have today and tomorrow to enjoy with highs being near 50* tomorrow and in the low 50s on Thursday! Yes there is a slight chance for a few light snow flurries for this weekend but nothing big! So don't worry! :o)
And one more thing! I did promise to post some pictures form our last snowfall so here are a few pictures I snapped below.....
You can see in this picture it was a heavy wet snowfall as it is sticking to the trees rather well. And the highest snowfall amount I could find in the Lafayette area was only 1.3" Inches. But it was enough to make the snow lovers happy and I for one loved to see the big snowflakes falling!
Snow falling just makes it feel like everything has stopped for a few minutes and it is all quite. Which is not just what we think, It really does make things sound more peaceful. It does so because the snowfall absorbs some of the sound waves making things feel and sound so calm!. All in All it was just a beautiful snowy day!
Anyway it will be another good day that we can enjoy before we start to track another rain system by Thursday! I will check back soon..........
