Spring Break Ends, Warm-Up Begins

Just as most fall back into the school routine we have the sun coming back out and us warming up. After a weekend of clouds and occasional spits of rain the winds turn to the southwest tomorrow. After the morning low clouds clear it'll become mostly sunny and a dramatic warm-up will occur:

Not that mid-70's is THAT dramatic it's just that this will qualify as the warmest day in about two dozen days. The trend of warmer weather started on Friday and peaks on Tuesday:

We'll likely have some of our area reach the 80's Tuesday afternoon if the storms and cold front hold back till late in the day.

We've had nice rains of late when we contemplate our 5-year drought. Another big rain is possible on Tuesday late/Wednesday.

We are not expecting severe weather but some isolated areas could get significant rain (1' plus). The storms could hit the Tuesday evening commute; the rain will be around overnight into the first half of Wednesday before moving east.

We have another round of rain arrive on Friday. Right now it's a little muddled on what happens next weekend, in specific on Sunday. One model shows the potential of severe weather, another shows dry weather. We'll keep you posted:
