Friday/Early Evening

WEATHER CODE: GREEN ***No hazardous weather expected***



First off just a few things here...

As many of you know the Central part of the United States is changing its new hail criterion beginning April 1st. To hear more about this click HERE

Also many of us have heard about the New Madrid Fault zone. It was the cause of the change in course of the Mississippi River in 1811 and 1812.



Many scientists have predicted another major quake in the next 50 years, but a new study by Purdue University released today suggests it may be "shutting down". For more on this click HERE

Now for the weather...

In all reality, we have a pretty boring period of weather setting up for the next several days, but I think we all need a reprieve after the recent chaos in the last few months. A very seasonable day today across Kentuckiana with sunny skies and temperatures hovering in the middle 50's with some places south of the river topping out at 60. There is a very slight chance for a shower tonight as a weak frontal boundary moves through the region. A warm up is on the way beginning tomorrow and lasting through the middle of next week. Temperatures tomorrow will approach 60 again, and we may be looking at 70 by Tuesday and Wednesday. After Wednesday, a weak cold front will slide through the area with little precipitation, but temperatures will drop slightly into the middle and upper 50's for the remainder of the work week. Since we are dealing with a rather quiet period of weather, I will try and have some fun and interesting stuff on the blog tomorrow. Everyone have a safe night!
