FORECAST:
The upper level ridge will bring yet another nice day in a Northerly flow aloft. The freezing level will rise to almost 2000 meters, dropping back down to 1200 meters tonight. Will likely see some cloud slide into the area later today as a dry trough moves through the interior. Mix of sun and cloud for Tuesday morning, with less cloud by the afternoon, yes another dry nice spring day!! Ridge continues to dominate Wednesday and Thursday with the possibility of a weak trough pushing through on Friday. Early yet but might see 1-2 mm of needed precipitation!! If this keeps up April will be a very dry month. Guesstimates: No precipitation until at least Friday?!!
