A warm front has lifted through the Ohio Valley and this ensures that we'll have a well above average forecast today with less rain activity.
Temperatures start in the upper 50s and low 60s under a partly cloudy sky. Temperatures warm quickly today thanks to a breezy southwest wind at 15 to 25 mph. We'll warm to 74 by the noon hour and then top out around 82 degrees this afternoon. There is a small rain chance today, but most of the area won't see precipitation.
The Storm Prediction Center has a "marginal risk" of severe storms over our western locations. This is in relation to storms that will develop late in the day out toward Indianapolis. More than likely, this storm activity won't make it into our area.
More rounds of rain are likely on Friday, along with a few storms as well. There's a small chance for rain as we head out the door in the morning. Then, scattered showers and storms develop by the late morning hours and rain should be hit or miss up through the evening rush. Highs climb to 78 degrees tomorrow.
Again, there's a low-end threat for severe weather. The SPC currently has our area in a marginal risk for severe storms. Widespread severe weather is unlikely.
More rounds of rain will move through the Ohio Valley on Saturday. This cold front is eventually going to bring a large drop to our temperatures. We'll go from a high of 77 on Saturday to only 54 on Easter Sunday.
Sunday's forecast, while cooler, is at least expected to be dry.
