Hey there I know it is the weekend and most will be out enjoying the GREAT weather today but I just wanted to pop in and let you know about the rain that is forecasted!
OK, I have some good news about today! I think we will hold all the rain off until closer to Monday night with maybe a few light rain showers which would be less then .10" inches and then the real heavy rain and some possible thundershowers look to move in by Tuesday. With the rain showers in the late afternoon into the evening. And the heavy heavy rainfall and possible thundershowers that night into early Wednesday! This means we will look for Partly cloudy to Mostly sunny skies today with a High in the 60s! It just don't get much better then this!!!!! :o) It is going to be great grilling weather so be sure to fire it up!

A Super Saturday Is In Store For The Hoosiers!!
HAPPY SATURDAY BLOGGERS!!!!! Yes, it is a great day today and we will have nice weather to go along with it! We will look for a high today in the upper 50s and a low that will feel much better then last nights of around the upper 30s! How does that sound? Also to make it better we will see off and on sun so Partly cloudy skies! We will hold off any rain until closer to Sunday Night into Monday! Yes, I know you all would rather have the ground dry more before more rain and I would like that to but nature wants rain! And I still think we could hear some thunder later on Tuesday! I will watch this closely however at this time I'M not going to call for any severe weather which is more good news but I would not rule out any ether. Still we should watch it and you know I will keep you posted!!! ;) But at this time it is just looking like some thundershowers and heavy rainfall possible.
Also another warm up is getting closer I think we will be pushing the 70s once again by Wednesday. Otherwise we will be seeing the 60s back by Sunday! Yes this is the Indiana weather we all love so much! LOL we will go from the high we seen yesterday of only 55* degrees to now the 60s again. Well, Indiana is known for its fast changing weather and I think that is a safe thing to say at this point. And yesterday was the first day of SPRING so maybe it is time we really start to feel like it! There have been reports of flowers blooming all over the area even here at my house we have seen a few flowers start to peak out of the cold ground. It wont be to much longer before we will start to hear the lawn mowers going around our neighborhoods.
Well, I had better get off to grab me some sleep and I want all of you to have a GREAT weekend and ENJOY THE WEATHER!!!!! I will catch up with you all here again real soon and you know I will have another update coming for the rain late late Sunday into Monday. Until then Peace

It Is Flood Safety Awareness Week. And Are Thunderstorms Back In Our Forecast? Read On To Find Out ;o)
Well Well Well! LOL we have winter for one day this week! No I'M not talking snow but there is some COLDER weather for a day! Yes, I hope you did not put up your heavy winter coats for the winter just yet. If so you may want to grab them before you head out this morning! Is is going to feel rather cold after the 60s and 70s we are use to. Take a look at today's outlook below.
Look at that cold high today of only 46* degrees. Good news is this is about as cold as it gets this week. We just have to get past that below freezing night of only 28* degrees. Bundle up is the word tip for today! It is not all bad we will see some more beautiful sunny skies today with a light wind between 5 and 10 mph.
I went out last night with me sister and we both watched the shuttle pass over head but once again and I have to say it is even better the more you see it! I just never get tired of watching it pass over. Maybe that's just me but I would think all weather lovers would love that! You can see we have been in this High pressure zone for sometime now take a look at the satellite below! Nice calm and clear over Lafayette. But how long will it last?????
Well, I think we will finish out this week before we put on anymore chances for rain. Now I will tell you there is a slight chance for some scattered showers on Sunday however I think we will hold it off until later on Sunday night into Monday! This means I think we will stay mostly dry on Sunday which is good news. I do see more rain and maybe even a thunderstorms back in our forecast by Monday! Yes, we could very well see more rain late Sunday into Monday and a possible thunderstorms from Monday into Tuesday. We will watch this closely as things keep getting closer but for now that is the next storm system we will watch. And or can expect for our area.....
Now speaking for rain and such I would like to remind all Bloggers and EVERYBODY that it is National Flood Safety Awareness Week From March 16-20. So I have posted all the info about what you need to know from the NWS so we all can be safe below. I feel we all should know this because of all the flooding we have already seen this year!! Take a look below..........
---------------------------------------------
This week is National Flood Safety Awareness Week. As we have recently faced the threat of flooding, with river flooding ongoing along the Wabash River, this is a particularly good time to review flood safety rules. Basic flood safety includes the following:
Purchase and use a NOAA All-Hazards Radio.
NEVER drive into flood waters - Turn Around, Don’t Drown. Two feet of water is enough to sweep any passenger vehicle away.
NEVER walk into flood waters - it takes only 6 inches of swiftly flowing water to knock you off your feet.
Ensure that your family disaster plan includes plans to deal with the threat of flooding.
-------------------------------------------
This is something everybody should be ready for. Flooding is a very big deal here in Indiana and I'M very glad that all did heed the warnings in the past flood this year! It is great news and really does keep you safe! This is what counts.....You and your family safe.
Now again we will finish this week with dry weather and slightly cooler temperatures. When will we start to get warmer again?? Well I think we start to warm up again by Monday! With 60s back in the forecast..... I know that sounds great after this cooler weather that believe it or not feels to me like the 30s! LOL. I'M a dude who gets cold easy! LOL ;) So have a great day and I will check back soon.
HAPPY FRIDAY BLOGGERS!

Nature Gave Us A Nice Treat And Let Lafayette Miss Out On The Heaviest Of The Rain!
Quick Cast Blog Cast....................
Today. We will see highs in the upper 50s with lots of Partly Cloudy to deal with! This is a nice treat from nature after letting us off the hook from last night with all that rain staying to our south! Winds will be between 10 and 15 mph with a low in the low 30s.
Friday. A beautiful looking day with Mostly Sunny skies and a high in the upper 40s. Nice calm winds between 5 and 10 mph and a COLD LOW in the upper 20s! Not something we have seen in a short while! It will feel rather COLD after all those 60s and 70s we seen.
Saturday. The weekend is looking pretty good at this time with Partly cloudy to mostly cloudy skies which means we will see some off and on sun through out the day. A mild high in the mid 50s and a much better low in the upper 30s.
Extended Outlook. The models are being a little tricky with the timing of the possible rain showers for Sunday into Monday. As of now I think we will hold the rain off for Sunday until later on Sunday evening to that night into Monday! So Sunday is looking mostly dry at this time with Mostly cloudy skies.
Monday is when our next best chance for rain is. We will see highs start to go up once again to near 60* degrees. However rain is expected and as of now I cannot rule out a possible stray thunderstorm.
----------------------------------------

Yes, for once Lafayette Indiana missed out on the wild stormy weather we all know oh to well. You can see in the radar image above that all the real stormy and heavy rainfall stayed to our south well to our south that is! We ended up with a tenth inch or less!! This is GREAT news for the area rivers once again. Currently the Wabash is at 14.26ft which is still a good three feet above flood stage. However it is expected to fall to near flood stage at 11.6ft by Friday 8:pm. This will be close to flood stage as flood stage is at 11ft.
Now above is Today's outlook and this is just the picture! We will see the rainy stuff move out and the Partly Cloudy move in! Yes, the rain is pushing off to our east and the cooler weather will come in as well. It is looking like a great week however just a little drop in temperatures! Nothing major or bitter cold like we have seen this past few days but still we will feel it after having the past few days in the upper 60s to low 70s we all love so much..........We will see our high temperatures today in the mid to upper 50s and tomorrow highs in the mid to upper 40s with get this a low in the upper 20s! Good news is this won't last long with another slight warm up coming by Monday. Along with our next chance for some real rain and maybe a thunderstorm. I will watch this and keep you posted as it gets closer.
My aunt Bomber sent me this picture of her Chihuahua Sophie last night and she calls her the taco Sophie lol. I think it is safe to say that Sophie is a little wore out after a full day of FUN and running all over that big yard she has! It is a Chihuahua's Dream! :) Thanks Bomber for sending me that GREAT picture! Be sure to tell Sophie she is looking good and to keep the pictures coming!!! ;)
Today. We will see highs in the upper 50s with lots of Partly Cloudy to deal with! This is a nice treat from nature after letting us off the hook from last night with all that rain staying to our south! Winds will be between 10 and 15 mph with a low in the low 30s.
Friday. A beautiful looking day with Mostly Sunny skies and a high in the upper 40s. Nice calm winds between 5 and 10 mph and a COLD LOW in the upper 20s! Not something we have seen in a short while! It will feel rather COLD after all those 60s and 70s we seen.

So for the rest of this week I think it is a Partly cloudy forecast and we will be talking about more rain and a possible stray thunderstorm by the start of next week..........

UPDATE AS OF 6:00PM FOR THE BETTER!!
OK here is the latest! By looking at the radars and watching them closely we in the Lafayette areas look to be missing out on the heavy rains tonight! Again this is great news for our area rivers. We will still see a few light rain showers but I'M not even seeing anything heavy for Lafayette at this time.
Areas on Montgomery, county will see the heavy rains off and on this evening as well as a few thunder rumbles possible. I have been picking up lightning strikes in the south part of our great state around Indianapolis IN, and south. This is again where they will see the heaviest rains and the thunder. Even for these parts nothing is severe. Which is more good news!
So any rain for the Lafayette area should stay on the lighter side with less then a quarter inch!
I will check in if needed. For once we miss out with a nice gift from nature!! ;)
