Just A Small Change

This run has been awesome and I really don't see it changing significantly. The overall comfort level will stick around, but some "cooler" air will return for the weekend.
The cooler air won't be like a slap in the face or anything major. It will just slip in here and make things feel a little closer to normal. Highs are right around 63 degrees for this time of year. We were 20+ higher than that in most areas on Thursday.
One of the official record keeping places is the NWS in Jackson. On Thursday, those folks saw temps climb into the mid and upper 80s. Am I shocked? No! Here are some other highs from around the region.
This was one of those WOW days!
Friday looks like it will have all of the potential in the world. Much like Thursday... widespread mid 80s!
Then comes Saturday and the small features that are included with that. Daytime highs will remain above normal, but we'll see more clouds and eventually some rain. It is still looking like this will be a late day event.
Sat Afternoon Sat Evening
I still think it will be more clouds than anything else early on Saturday. The rain will get in here that evening and it should all be gone by the time you are getting ready for your Easter plans.
The daytime highs will get knocked down just a little, but we are around a time of year when a recovery is a little easier. Sunday will feature highs in the upper 60s and then it looks like we'll climb right back up the old thermometer by Monday. Not to the 80+ level, but back in the 70s.
C-Ya Bye
