MM’s Forecast for the Plateau

Local matters, especially when it comes to your weather forecast! Bringing you your local weather since 2017!

This forecast is tailor-made for the Cumberland Plateau by Meteorologist Mark Baldwin each day!

After coming in like a lamb, March will also go out like a lamb. I’m not sure anyone is complaining about that! (ha)

We’ll see lots of clouds today, along with a chance for a sprinkle or two.

A better chance for showers comes Wednesday, with scattered showers and even a possible t-storm. Thursday looks mostly dry before another 50% chance for scattered shrs/t-storms comes Friday.

The best chance for rain this week may come Saturday night as a cold front passes through. Right now, Easter Sunday is looking drier in the wake of the Saturday night cold frontal passase. I’ll keep a close eye on that Easter forecast.

Threat Outlook

Today’s greatest risk for severe threats can be found across western Oklahoma and again from Illinois to New York state.

A forecast that is unfortunately trending drier…

The good news is that humidity has increased enough today to reduce our wildfire risk, though caution is still advised when doing any outdoor burning (make sure you get that permit!).

The dryer trend to the forecast doesn’t sound good when drought conditions continue to worsen on the plateau. While we still have a chance for a shower on Tuesday, rain chances for Wednesday though Friday have decreased. It is possible that those forecasts could trend drier.

Hopefully there’s enough of the system in tact to give us some decent rainfall on Saturday. I know we don’t want rain on the weekend but with hay fields, budding vegetation, and lowering water tables needing lots of water these days, rain is certainly needed.

MM’s Forecast for the Plateau

Local matters, especially when it comes to your weather forecast! Bringing you your local weather since 2017!

This forecast is tailor-made for the Cumberland Plateau by Meteorologist Mark Baldwin each day!

March winds continue to blow, but today those winds are back to being out of the south.

You could almost get whiplash trying to keep up with which direction the winds have been out of from day to day. (ha) Today, they’re southerly and they’ll be southerly for the next several days. As we all know, southerly winds are bound to bring in warmer temps and moisture and indeed these will do just that!

But we won’t worry about the moisture part of that equation until Tuesday and especially Wednesday and Thursday. We could see some storms but right now nothing too concerning is showing up just yet. I’ll keep an eye on that.

The good news is that we have not frost or freeze conditions to worry about for at least the next week.

MM’s Forecast for the Plateau

Local matters, especially when it comes to your weather forecast! Bringing you your local weather since 2017!

This forecast is tailor-made for the Cumberland Plateau by Meteorologist Mark Baldwin each day!

March winds continue to blow, but today those winds are out of the north.

Those northerly winds are bringing cooler temps and very low humidity to the plateau. That combination will bring an elevated wildfire risk to the plateau today. If you smell or see smoke, make sure the situation is under control. Burning outdoors is banned in most areas today.

The weekend is looking dry, with sunny skies. Mornings will be cool and crisp, while afternoons will be warm and breezy.

A much wetter and unsettled pattern will develop by Wednesday and last several days. I’ll monitor for any flooding and/or severe storm risks.
