Typical weather - for March.   Up and down temperature pattern.

Rain will develop today across our southern counties and then spread northward into the region.  Rainfall totals between now and Tuesday will range from 0.30-1.25".  Heaviest amounts across our middle and southern counties - included Metropolis/Paducah.  

Severe weather threat - below normal for the near term.  Nothing shocking there :) - the pattern has kept us mostly on the cool side of the storm systems.  The warm sectors have been staying south of our region.

Keep an eye on the third week of March for a severe weather event in the central United States.
