Hatzos

Ummm should I be worrying? The blue dot is me.

Two thunderstorm warnings here in Lebanon from two different line segments. Power flickered a few times but all good!

Loop

Good Morning and the storms were not to bad in my area overnight. Well we have made it through 3 months of the year and at CVG temp departure is just under 5 degrees above normal and precip is just under 20p/c above normal. These two usually go hand in hand except for the summer season. Will mother nature continue on the same path or will she try and get us back to normal before the year ends. No ideal and some of that will rest on how the upcoming El Nino reacts.

The stronger winds are heading this way. Last hour Indy had a gust of 52mph. So the afternoon and evening should be quite windy with temps falling and probably stay in the upper 40's. Sunday and Monday look nice before the next system heads into the area.

Got .48" from yesterday and overnight for a combo .98"

Currently 50 with a gust of 45 mph here in G'ville.

I had mentioned this on, I believe it was Thurs, that after seeing a wind velocity forecast map on the AccuWeather channel that there would be a HWW for much of the OV.
