NEXT FEW WEEKS. BEFORE THAT DEADLINE. TIME NOW IS 448 HERE ON YOUR MONDAY. IT IS SAINT PATRICK’S DAY AS WELL, SO LET’S SEND THINGS OVER TO METEOROLOGIST BRIAN SLOCUM, WHO HAS TO STAND IN FRONT OF A GREEN WALL SO HE CAN’T BE IN GREEN UP TOP. BUT YOU GOT SOCKS ON TODAY. I DO HAVE GREEN SOCKS ON. I’VE GOT MY MY MY MY MY SHAMROCK PINS. HE’S TRYING TO AVOID BEING I’M TRYING TO COVER TOO. YEAH.% YEAH. TRYING. YES. BECAUSE YOU DON’T KNOW THIS CREW TO BE. THEY TAKE IT SERIOUSLY. THEY REALLY DO. YEAH. AND, WELL, THEY SHOULD. YES. BECAUSE ON A DAY LIKE TODAY, TOO MUCH BETTER WEATHER DAY TO ON TOP OF THAT TOO. JACKIE, WE’VE GOT SOME LEFTOVER SHOWERS THAT ARE STILL IN THE AREA. WE KIND OF START THINGS OUT WITH A LOOK AT HOW OUR RADAR IS FARING. FIRST THING THIS MORNING, CONDITIONS OVER THE AREA. CERTAINLY LOOKING QUITE WET AT TIMES DURING THE DAYTIME YESTERDAY. THAT IS GOING TO CONTINUE FOR AT LEAST A LITTLE WHILE. THIS MORNING WILL SHORTEN UP THIS RADAR LOOP HERE IN A MOMENT. HAD SOME SOME HEAVY THUNDERSTORMS AND SOME STRONG WINDS KIND OF RUMBLE THROUGH THE AREA. THE WORST OF THE STORMS CAME YESTERDAY EVENING, COMING OUT OF THE SOUTH THROUGH MONTGOMERY, SOUTHERN DAVIDSON, RANDOLPH AND INTO GUILFORD COUNTY. YESTERDAY, AS WE SAID AT THE TOP OF THE SHOW, THERE WERE A NUMBER OF REPORTS OF WIND DAMAGE, SOME DOWNED TREES AND SOME VERY LARGE HAIL, ESPECIALLY CENTERED OVER GUILFORD COUNTY. SEVERAL REPORTS OF QUARTER TO EGG SIZED HAIL FALLING FROM SOME OF THOSE STORMS, WITH THE VERY POWERFUL UPDRAFTS. THIS IS A CURRENT SHORTENED THREE HOUR RADAR LOOP, AND YOU CAN SEE THE FRONTAL BOUNDARY IS STILL SLIPPING THROUGH, HELPING TO CREATE SOME SOME ADDITIONAL SHOWERS THIS MORNING THAT COULD MAKE THE BUS STOP ACROSS OUR EASTERN AREAS A LITTLE BIT DAMP. WE HAVE SOME RAIN NOW JUST SOUTH AND EAST OF REIDSVILLE, MOVING TOWARD WESTERN CASWELL COUNTY AND COMING OUT OF ALAMANCE COUNTY AS WELL. LITTLE SOGGY OVER PARTS OF GUILFORD AND NORTH WESTERN PORTIONS OF RANDOLPH COUNTY THIS MORNING, AND THEN DOWN THROUGH DAVIDSON COUNTY INTO WESTERN AREAS OF MONTGOMERY COUNTY THIS MORNING. WE STILL HAVE A LINGERING RAIN. NOW IT SHOULD BEGIN TO PULL THROUGH FOR OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF HOURS. TEMPERATURES, IN THE MEANTIME, ARE SLIPPING BEHIND THAT FRONT. IT’S DOWN TO TO NEAR 40 DEGREES. SPARTA DOWN TO BOONE THIS MORNING. TEMPERATURES ARE STILL PRETTY LOFTY, ESPECIALLY IN AREAS AHEAD OF THE FRONT. STILL A MILD WIND KEEPING TEMPERATURES IN THE UPPER 50S TO NEAR 60 DEGREES IN MOST LOCATIONS. YOU CAN SEE THERE’S GOOD CLEARING. SOME HEAVY STORMS ARE STILL NEAR THE COASTLINE AT THE MOMENT. LOOK AT ALL THE LIGHTNING STRETCHED OUT NOW JUST OFFSHORE FROM THE OUTER BANKS, DOWN INTO COASTAL SECTIONS OF GEORGIA. THIS MORNING YOUR FORECAST HAS CLOUDS EARLY AND SOME LINGERING SHOWERS. I THINK MOST OF THOSE ARE GONE BY ABOUT EIGHT, 7 OR 8:00 THIS MORNING. TEMPERATURES WILL BE COOLED BY A STIFF NORTH NORTHWEST BREEZE AT 10 TO 20, AND WE’LL SEE INCREASING AMOUNTS OF SUNSHINE, ESPECIALLY ONCE WE GET INTO THE AFTERNOON. HIGH TEMPERATURES IN THE UPPER 50S LATER ON TODAY. MID 50S FOR THE FOOTHILLS WITH A NORTHEAST OR NORTHWEST WIND, I SHOULD SAY, AT 10 TO 20MPH. MOUNTAIN HIGHS THAT ARE SLIPPING INTO THE 30S LIKELY WON’T GET BACK INTO THE MID 40S. A LITTLE WINDIER THERE WITH GUSTS UP TO ABOUT 30MPH. TEMPERATURES UP AND DOWN THIS WEEK. THERE’S AT LEAST A FIVE DEGREE CHANGE IN TEMPERATURE FROM ONE DAY TO THE NEXT. OVER THE NEXT SEVEN DAYS, OUR COOLEST THURSDAY FRIDAY AFTER TODAY. BUT WE SHOULD WARM THINGS UP INTO THE 70S FOR SEVERAL DAYS TO A SUNNY DAY IS EXPECTED THIS AFTERNOON INTO TUESDAY, AND LIKELY INTO WEDNESDAY. TWO. BUT TEMPERATURES ARE GOING TO FEEL A LITTLE MORE MARCH LIKE THAN THIS APRIL AND MAY FEELING WEATHER THAT WE’VE HAD THE LAST COUPLE OF DAYS. FIRST DAY OF SPRING IS THURSDAY SHOULD BE A DECENT DAY WITH A FEW
