Get ready for more storms. Beginning late tonight and into tomorrow, showers and then thunderstorms will be expected. The high tomorrow is 70 degrees. That’s not a good sign. Although 70 degrees in early March feels nice, it almost always leads to destructive weather. By Wednesday, the high will be about 46. That’s cooler, but less threatening.

POTENTIAL WIND GUSTS FROM SQUALL LINE (See Graphic Above)
Broken squall line will sweep through today just ahead of cold front with damaging wind, hail & isolated tornado threat. The threat will be over by 6 p.m. Eastern Time. Due to its lack of solidity, not everyone will see severe weather, but there will be swaths of wind, some hail cores & an isolated tornado cannot be ruled out.
Another severe threat will exist Tuesday afternoon/evening after a morning complex of rain & t’storms.

1. Cluster of heavy rain/hail possible Monday night with complex that passes through.
BREAK, THEN SQUALL LINE POSSIBLE TUESDAY……

2. Still look like a lull with some sunshine Tuesday afternoon.
3. Squall line is possible late in the day. Directional shear is more pronounced with this squall line, so will have to watch isolated tornado threat. Otherwise, main threat damaging straight-line winds.
RIVER FLOODING LIKELY……………
1. Given rainfall of 1.5”-3” likely total through Tuesday, river flooding is likely, especially on the Wabash River.
COLD SNAP INTERRUPTED BY 2 MILD DAYS………
1. Thankfully 2 days of 50s will be sandwhiched in our cold snap.
2. Those 50s look to occur next Saturday & Sunday with rain potential Sunday.
