FRIDAY FEB 21 2014
Do we have a series of ridge busting storms coming mid next week? A little early right now to be precise, but global forecast models are still lining up in that direction. Looks like a couple of weather systems will move through the area next week. The first could be late Wednesday into Wednesday night, with the second Friday into Saturday. Timing and the amount of precipitation is always an issue this far out, so this is my best projection right now. I will have more updates on these possible storms in my weekends forecast. For today through early next week, dry weather and above normal temperatures will prevail. So have a Great Go Do It weekend!
