Weather Summary

Winds will be quite gusty this morning but should begin to subside by afternoon. Much of the forecast contains wind. It’s as if March has come early!

An area of low pressure along the Gulf Coast will be the next system to monitor in the coming days. That system could bring a shower by Saturday afternoon and evening. As colder air moves in Saturday night, those showers could turn to light snow or snow showers. That activity should taper off on Sunday. Right now, that moisture looks to be very limited and not cause any issues. However, I will monitor this closely.

By Monday, temps rebound back into the 50s.

Earthquake Map

The map at this link shows the earthquakes around the world in near real-time. Check it out and keep up with the Turkey/Syria earthquake. That quake and the series of aftershocks have created the deadliest earthquake in more than a decade across the world. Inclement weather has not helped. https://earthquake.usgs.gov/earthquakes/map/?currentFeatureId=us6000jlmv&extent=35.81336,34.53003&extent=38.3675,40.27588
