MODEL DISCUSSION

Looking at models for today, looks like we will have a wet day as rain continues throughout the day into the evening. Looks like models are predicting .3 inches of snow by evening as well. Whether or not that will stick is questionable with temperatures. Rapid refresh model shows a measurement of 1.2 inches buy Halloween, but after yesterday’s Fiasco I doubt it will be. We should start to dry out by early tomorrow morning at 4 am. We should be good weather wise through the weekend. Highs for the weekend will be in the forties to upper 40s and lows in the 30s.

That is about it for today, be safe driving to work and from work to home tonight.

October 16th 2019 Forecast

Good morning Blue Springs! Have you ever had one of those nights where your brain does not want to shut off? That is what happened to me last night. I did use some of that time to pray for those that reached out to me yesterday. I feel like I’ve been up all night. Does not help that you get up every morning at 4:30. The way I see it, I can either focus on the fact that I was up all night and be miserable today, or have an attitude of this too shall pass. I’m going to choose the second option.

CURRENT CONDITIONS

Another crisp morning. Light dew on the grass, and a little on the rain gauge. Skies are partly cloudy. No precipitation report. Current temperature 37.9°. We had a high of 64.7 and a low of 37.6 over the past 24 hours. Relative humidity 90%. Barometric pressure 1019 and steady. Winds are at 0 gusting to 2 out of the south-southwest. Dew point temperature is 32°. Feels like 32°.

FORECAST

Today, temperatures are going to struggle. We will only reach into the upper 50s. Chance of rain 0%. Dew point temperature in the upper 30s. Skies will be partly cloudy shifting to mostly clear by 4pm.

Tonight, temperatures in the low 40s. Chance of rain 0%. Dew point temperature in the upper 30s. Skies will be clear.

Thursday, temperatures will be back up into the upper 60s. Chance of rain 0%. Dew point temperature will be in the low 40s. Skies will be clear.

Thursday night, temperatures in the low 50s. Chance of rain 0%. Dew point temperature in the mid to upper 40s. Skies will be clear shifting to partly cloudy by 4am.

Friday temperatures will be in the low 70s. Chance of rain 1%. Dew point temperature in the upper 40s. Skies will be partly cloudy shifting to mostly clear after morning.

Friday night, temperatures in the low 50s. Chance of rain 43%. Dew point temperature upper 40s. Skies will be clear shifting to partly cloudy to cloudy.

CONVECTIVE OUTLOOK

Convective Outlook shows no chance of severe or non severe thunderstorms over the next two days. Friday into Saturday shows a chance of non severe thunderstorms in our area.

MODEL DISCUSSION

Models show a chance of trace rain tomorrow morming around 7am in our area. This may or may not happen. Friday evening around 10pm another system shows up, continues off and on through the night, ending about 10am Saturday morning. Another system pops in Tuesday October 20th at roughly 10pm. Another low temperature system arrives around 7am on Monday October 28th. Temperatures appear to be in the mid-thirties. Wednesday October 30th at 1am is something to keep an eye on, as temperatures will plummet to the low 20s. If this happens, October will have its first hard freeze for the year. October 31st does not show any precipitation at this time, and shows temperatures in the upper 40s by 7pm.

Low 20s Wednesday October 30th.

That is pretty much it for today. Have a safe trip to work. Praying for all who reached out to me last night. May God bless you tremendously, and encourage you, and empower you, and increase your faith, and show you he is still there.

Wednesday Forecast Will Bring Rain

Good morning and Merry Christmas Blue Springs! I hope this post finds you well. Last night I explained that the Wednesday forecast will be some significant weather that will bring much needed rain.  The models are are really coming together and the forecast is predicting up to an inch and a half of rain over Wednesday and Thursday which is a good thing since we have been lacking any precipitation here in beautiful Blue Springs!

Last night we had .01″ of rain and it came and went.  If you blinked you would have missed it, but at least some precipitation is better than none although a good ole fashioned white Christmas would have been great.

The window of opportunity for moderate to heavy rainfall will be Wednesday night into early Thursday. Rain should end by Thursday afternoon and start to dry back out. There is no sign of snow because of the warm temperatures. Following Thursday afternoon it will become breezy with 25-30 mph winds with temperatures in the upper 50s to lower 60s! It will be a beautiful day continuing through this weekend with another chance of precipitation Monday into Tuesday.
