There is a conditional threat for strong to severe thunderstorms today and tomorrow, and while little has changed in our overall thinking, confidence in each day's threat is not high. Stay updated with the latest information as the forecast evolves!
Outside of any thunderstorms today, winds will be gusty out of the south during the afternoon. A Wind Advisory is in effect for much of the region from 12-7pm, make sure your outdoor furniture and objects are secured!
After a busy week weather-wise, we deserve a break! Well, just in time for Easter, cooler and dry conditions will take hold. Enjoy!
With March officially in the rearview mirror, we can now say that it was one for the record books! 15 high temperature records fell at our long-term climate sites in the region, with Quincy, IL setting the most of the three sites (6 records). Despite a few very chilly days, this March ranks as one of the warmest on record.
