Hey Neighbors!
What a cold last week we’ve had! It nearly felt like winter with all those chilly and wet days! Looks like we made it through that stretch without the dreaded late frost but we really aren’t ‘out of the woods yet’! Lows in the 40s will continue into the end of next week with highs heading back into the 60s come Monday.
The sporadic showers are forecasted to continue, with large bands moving up and across the country towards us. These fast moving rain bands, or the more severe squall lines, can often bring lots of lightning / thunder and even have a strong front wall of wind too. This is a good time of year to always check the radar to see what type of day it will actually be.
