Two separate storm systems are producing severe weather Tuesday evening. The first from what developed late Monday night now moving into Southern Illinois with severe wind gusts and large hail. The second storm system out west has produced several tornado and severe thunderstorm warnings from Nebraska to North Texas. That system shifts east overnight Tuesday and is what will bring Northern Illinois and Southern Wisconsin rain Wednesday afternoon and Thursday. Don't worry - we will not get any severe weather.
We stay on the 'cooler' side of the storm with a stiff East wind Wednesday. This will hold temperatures in the low 50's for both Wednesday and Thursday afternoon. Light rain moves in Wednesday afternoon, becoming a little more steady by Wednesday night.
As Meteorologist Kristin Cwynar mentioned in the previous post our April rainfall has fallen below average with us now over an inch below our monthly rainfall total. The incoming rain will help, but most models average out about half an inch between the two days. Which leaves us still over half an inch below what we need. There is some rainfall for the upcoming weekend which may help a little, but it's possible we'll end the month on the dry side.
