Hey Eric and thanks for the graphic. My son got 2 inches this morning and they expect 6-10 over the next 8 hours or so. That heavy band will be close as he will be on the eastern edge. Lucky the kids are on spring break this week

Of course my son has a meeting in the morning in Rhinelander so he will have a very snowy trip.
I'm not jealous of him having to make the drive, but I am jealous of not being there to witness the storm! Glad they are seeing it to help with local drought concerns.
Good morning and a nicer day in storm as temps head towards 70 but become windier as we head through the day. Overnight a wall of rain should hit most folks and a quick dose of rainfall. Tuesday more showers but scattered and that continues until Wednesday morning when we get several days of dry weather. Still going .25-.50 area wide though if you happen to get a stronger thundershower later on Tuesday you can add a little more but that will be isolated and not everyone will get in on the action. Easter is still a toss up this far away though temps look rather nice rainfall chances are there at the moment and will need to watch the timing.
I am going to ask the dreaded question as the eclipse weekend is coming within the 2 week time period. I am more interested in the weekend leading up to the eclipse if it is looking dry at the moment. I ask only because are area is in the the totality path, and I am process of clearing out my dads house and need to have an estate sale. I was going to try to take advantage of the extra people in the area with the sale but not wanting to put the expense into advertising heavily if it looking like it is going to be wet! lol
Relative humidity falling to between 15 and 25 percent this
afternoon and southeast winds of 10 to 20 mph with some higher
gusts will result in an increased risk of fire start and spread.
Please exercise caution if handling open flames or equipment that
creates sparks. Dispose of cigarettes, matches, and other flammable
materials in appropriate containers.
Any fire that gets started could grow out of control under these
conditions.

GFS has rain for a few hours on Sat then more rain on Easter,. but it stays to our south on this run, then comes back north into our area on Monday. Euro has a chance Sat morning with a better chance Sun afternoon and evening.

Good morning all! Light to mod rain continues across the area this morning. 0.13" as of 4am at CVG. 0.17" at the Bone Co Mesonet and about 0.15" here. We should get up towards that 0.25" mark I would think by the time all is said and done. We should get a break today once this band of rain moves thru. Then we'll get a line of storms this evening with the cold front, thus the marginal risk that is in place for today. Thinking 8-10pm range for the front this evening. Then, we are good thru Good Friday, followed by a warm front on Sat which could bring some rain in the mor4ning. Followed by a cold front settling in for Easter Sunday to bring in a chance for t-storms there. So please stay tuned if you are trying to time out Easter Egg hunts and also which day is better Saturday or Easter itself? We may be doing ours Sat afternoon potentially. We shall see!
0.22" as of 6am at CVG. Steady rains are now pulling out of the area. We shall see how the rest of the day unfolds with regards to strong to severe storms with the cold front this evening.
CVG just gusted to 40 mph so watch for strong winds out there today! Cold front looks to be in Western ILL now with some clearing noted back across Central and Western IN. We shall see how much clearing we can get as the day wears on. AFD from the boys as of 6:50am:
.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 PM THIS EVENING/...
Broad mid and upper level trof remains over the Central and
Western CONUS. Embedded mid level low to open up and lift
northeast as 110KT 500MB wind max rotates around the east side
of the low. Deep low pressure will lift northeast from the Mid
MS Valley across the Western Great Lakes today with a trailing
cold front moving thru ILN/s area late from west to east late in
the day thru the evening.
A potent southerly low level jet of 65-70kt will result in
favorable lift and moisture transport across the area this
morning. Widespread showers which have encroached into the area
will overspread the entire region this morning.
Initial dry air will allow for mixing and for some of the
stronger winds to translate to the surface with wind gusts of 40
to 45 mph possible at times this morning.
This initial band of WAA pcpn will move out with a general lull
in pcpn into this afternoon.
Some breaks in the clouds will allow for mixing and the
potential for another period of enhanced wind gusts. Guidance
suggests that the strongest winds may approach advisory
criteria across ILN/s northwest counties this afternoon. Will
continue to mention this threat in special weather statement
with wind gusts of 40 to 45 mph possible.
A plume of lower 50s surface dewpoints combined with cooling
aloft will result in an axis of marginal instability along and
ahead of the surface cold front. Expect MUCAPE values of 100 to
300 J/kg. Expect low topped convection to develop ahead of the
front. Given the strength of the wind fields and steepening
lapse rates the potential exists for a few of the storms to
become severe with strong to damaging wind being the main
threat - generally along and west of I-75. This threat looks to
develop later in the afternoon beginning at 5 pm across Eastern
Indiana and Western Ohio and ending early this evening with the
loss of heating.
High temperatures look to range form the mid and upper 50s
northeast where clouds linger to the mid/upper 60s southwest.
Also fun to relive vicariously through kids today on those special treasured childhood memories!
Its great that they can have that treasure trove of Youtube memories to enjoy and love again and again!
I will post the 2024 version soon.
