Daily Weather Briefing fr Sunday, April 21, 2019
Happy Easter!
For those that celebrate Resurrection Sunday, an appropriate reading is on the blog at [LINK]. For those who don’t have a home church or cannot attend church, there is also a link and player to where you can watch a church service.
Outlook
An upper-level low-pressure center located near West Virginia will move slowly east through Monday. Expect a warming trend as the upper low moves away from our area. Warm and dry high pressure will be in control of our weather for most of the week. Rain chances increase by the end of the week as a cold front moves into our area.
