She gets the Gold Star because ,
we are talking about an area ofw
pressure that's spinning over te
Great Lakes right there at Cedar Point.
And that area of low pressure is keeping us
kind of in this soggy pattern off and on.
Showers will continue not only
today but also into Tuesday.
Not only that, but it's also going to be
windy and it's going to be on a colder
side as we kick off the month of May.
All right, well, how windy are we talking?
It's going to be a West wind for today
and it looks like upwards to 30 plus mph,
so along with the rain.
It's also going to be a little bit breezy.
Here's noon today,
seeing those wind gusts up to 3.
That'll just continue as we head
into the afternoon, going to be gone,
the breezy side tonight and then
also for tomorrow.
So if you notice the winds howlg
a little bit, that's because ag,
of this area of low pressure
that's sitting on top of us.
It's gloomy up there in Cedar P.
It's also gloomy here in the capital city,
but people are still out and ab.
We got to still be out and abou.
It's a Monday looking at 40 deg,
currently cloudy skies and just a little
bit of rain out there in Columb.
Right now W Southwest wind at 13 mph.
So we're already seeing that wid
kind of elevated a little bit.
All right.
Current temperatures in your backyard
for coming in at 39 in Caldwell,
42 MacArthur, 41 in Circleville,
39 in London,
37 in Delaware and 38 in Bucyru.
So we're above the freezing
marks that's good,
but kind of doesn't really feel
like it when you step outside.
Here's the positive that I can
give you on this Monday,
the first day of May.
You know the average high for ts
time of year is around 70 we're.
Nowhere near that today and tomorrow,
So just look away from that if
you're not a fan of the cold ai.
But towards the end of the week,
we do see a nice warming trend.
We will be back in the mid to
upper 60s by Friday.
Let's zoom out and show you the
science behind why we're stuck n
this yucky pattern on this Mond.
It's May, we should be nice and warm, right?
Well, it's this area of low pressure again.
It's spinning right over the
Great Lakes region right now.
We're getting to the back end ot
and you can kind of see that Wet
Wind will just continue to driv.
And the moisture,
and it really is kind of surging
in from the Atlantic too.
So that moisture plume just
continues to move on in.
And when you don't have anythino
kick this low pressure out of he
like a cold front, that'd be ni.
What happens is it just sits the
and that's what's gonna happen
unfortunately for the next coupe
of days. As we head into our Tuesday as well,
so let's take you live into Franklin County
where we are seeing a little bit of rain,
New Albany, Westerville, Dublin,
Powell winding the view here.
You can see that rain extends
all the way along I-70,
even seeing some pockets of rail
picking back up into Pickaway County.
Now here is our forecast for the day today.
We're looking at some off and on
rain showers, breezy, cloudy.
Just not the best looking Monda,
but it's a Monday. We're looking at 1:00.
O'clock temperatures will be in the 40s.
And here's something interesting that
we're picking up on the future radar.
That is the possibility of seeing some
wet snowflakes mixing in north of I-70.
And that is a possibility for tonight,
heading into early tomorrow mor.
Do I think it's gonna stick?
Probably not.
I think the grounds too warm for that.
Of course, the sun angle,
even if we get a little bit of sun kind of
mixing in just keeps that ground too warm.
But again,
we could see some snowflakes,
kind of.
Mixing in across the northern sections
of the viewing area early tomorw
and then it's all rain once agan
for tomorrow afternoon again ast
low pressure kind of spins over.
Here is a look at your mowing forecast.
You'll be very in pleased aboutw
beautiful your lawn will be after this rain.
We should see upwards to maybe an inch or
an inch and 1/2 for the next two days,
so that'll help you at least for the lawn.
But you don't want to be out the
mowing and weather like that.
You can see pretty poor conditis
for today and tomorrow,
but it's all good by Wednesday.
Day and Heading into our Thursd,
let's take a look at our 10 day
forecast here and we've got two
yucky days to get through.
But after that it is smooth sai,
plenty of sunshine by Thursday and Friday.
And if you're like me,
you're thinking about the weekend already.
Well, take a look at Saturday and Sunday.
Mostly sunny and highs will
soar back into the 70s.
Now it's.
