DAYS 1-5 (MARCH 12-16)<\/p>\n\n\n\n
A cold front moved through last night, and while you wouldn’t have really noticed that at first even if you were outside, you’ll notice it today, as it’s 15 to 20 degrees cooler than yesterday. This cooler spell will last a couple days, and while the frontal boundary attempts to return as a warm front, high pressure to the north will thwart its progress for a while. A little overrunning enhanced by a weak disturbance aloft will trigger a band of precipitation tonight, which looks like it’ll take the form of a fairly narrow band stretching from west to east, also moving from west to east, starting as a mix or a bit of rain then going over to some snow. Wherever this is, a coating of snow can occur, but will melt away early Thursday once the precipitation moves out. The clouds will remain stubborn on Thursday, and we can only hope enough breaks work in to at least get a limited view of a total lunar eclipse, occurring in the post-midnight \/ pre-dawn hours Friday. I’ll update with exact times next blog if it looks like we have a shot to see it. Friday’s weather will feature a lot of clouds and a slightly milder air mass as the warm front does finally amble its way across the region, very slowly. This sets us up for a breezy, warmer weekend with a moderate to strong southerly air flow. This will be occurring ahead of a major Midwest \/ Great Lakes storm which produces severe weather in the South and a snowstorm in parts of the Plains to Upper Midwest. For us, we just see lots of clouds, and at most some spotty rain showers by Sunday afternoon, evolving into a more widespread rain shower event Sunday night as a slow-moving cold front approaches and moves in from the west.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
