I bet there were plenty of smiles on all the weather forecasters faces this weekend with the sunny skies and dry weather. I mean enough is enough. So many clouds, so much rain and so much chilly weather to last a long, long time.
It was chilly early Saturday with overnight lows in the 30s and some scattered frost. It took a while for the thermometer to inch upward even with the sunshine. Those puffy, white clouds looked somewhat ominous early Saturday, and I was holding my breath that there would be no showers.
I was breathing much better after lunch as many Easter egg hunts were underway. We should be around 61 degrees this time of the year; I think we were going to be close to that late Saturday. Today, with more sunshine and a warmer flow of air aloft, we should have our warmest day of the year.
You will notice high clouds increasing this afternoon ahead of a weak weather system that promises more light rain and showers by Monday. We have April showers slated for much of the week with Friday being a dry day. Does dry weather extend beyond Friday? Looking at weather data Saturday, I’m thinking not.
