Almost 80 today, Thunderstorms Possible Thursday and Friday

First a warm welcome to any new readers that found the website after a good write up in the local paper. It has been a slow week with relatively calm weather so the blog has not been very active.

As for upcoming weather, the temperature made it to 79.6 locally. The warm up seems to be in high gear after the extended winter. If you have not noticed, we have been virtually rain free since the 10th when almost an inch fell over the area.

Some thunderstorms are possible Thursday through Friday night. The simulated radar shows a squall line crossing Indiana after 9 PM on Friday. Squall lines normally are ahead of a cold front and this one is no different. Damaging winds and hail are possible and an isolated tornado cannot be ruled out.
