After an extended period of cold weather this month, the last week of March will be decidedly more spring-like, as temperatures return to normal and we get more than a few rainy days. A warm front is approaching the city this afternoon, giving us fog, overcast skies, light rain and a high in the mid 50s once front passes.
The warm front is associated with a string of low pressure systems, one to our southeast over the Atlantic, another over Lake Huron, and a third over northwestern Arkansas. That last low will be our weather maker tomorrow as it heads up the Ohio Valley, giving us another warm, drizzly day with a high near 60.
There is a lot of disagreement on how fast high pressure will move in to push away tomorrow's cloudy,drizzly skies. AccuWeather and the Weather Channel move the systems fastest, which would give us a sunny Wednesday with a high near 60. The National Weather Service sees a slower solution, meaning clouds gradually giving way to sun with a near normal high in the mid 50s. Everyone gets back to the same page by Thursday, forecasting a high in the mid 50s under mostly sunny skies. The month is expected to finish with a rainy Friday.
