The disturbance that is bringing heavy rain and even snow to parts of the Midwest today is heading in this direction and will bring us a very large amount of rain over the weekend. Here is the setup:

Tonight

The disturbance that has been in the Florida area over the last few days has been been caught up in the upper low to the west and is currently lifting northward. This low will be bringing us rain overnight, most of it will be light, but there will be pockets of heavier rain.

Tomorrow

The disturbance out west will finally move out and start tapping into some gulf moisture that is being drawn in from the south. Once this moisture hooks up with the upper low we will see some heavy rain start forming. This will be around mid day tomorrow and will last through tomorrow night. I am not expecting anything severe as temps will only make it into the 50's, but there will be some strong t-storms with the heavier rain fall.

Gloomy Friday with cloudy skies and a few isolated showers. High temperatures will be in the mid 60s. Breezy from the East around 15-20mph, gusting up to 30mph.

Isolated shower chances continue tonight with overcast skies. Low temperatures will be in the low to mid 50s with an east wind around 15-20mph, gusting up to 30mph.

More widespread showers arrive Saturday with overcast skies again. Temperatures will also be cooler, with highs only in the upper 50s.....20 degrees below normal! Still windy as well from the east around 15mph, gusting up to 25mph.

The gloomy days linger all the way through Monday with more rain chances. Finally starting Tuesday sunshine returns and it brings warmer temperatures with it.

But I don't have snow in the forecast for us, I can't even believe I am saying that.... And yes, it is May 2nd and in the above radar image you are seeing snow falling in parts of Kansas, there is even a chance that portions of N Oklahoma and N Arkansas could see some snow mixed with a bit of rain tomorrow!! I know it is wild, but this is the weather and the weather is just that.... Wild and woolly, as is ours over the next few days!

Through Tomorrow
