Today's Records and Climate

Rain chances return today and will continue through Saturday night. Widespread rainfall amounts of an inch or greater are expected. Easter Sunday currently looks to be a very pleasant day.

Rainfall chances return to the area this weekend. This shows the probability of the area getting at least one inch of rainfall through Saturday night.

With how dry it has been, it might seem silly to talk about Excessive Rainfall Outlooks. Nonetheless, there is some potential that we could see some areas pick up a decent amount of rainfall all at once on Friday and Saturday that could bring some isolated Flash Flooding concerns at times.

There is a Marginal Risk for strong to severe thunderstorms on Friday and Saturday as a strong cold front moves through the region.

Here are today's temperature and precipitation averages, along with records for selected sites across the Four-State area.
