More Rainy Weather

It was nice to start the month of May off with some warm, dry weather in the Quad Cities.  Unfortunately it will be a long time before we have another day like today!  A slow moving, but potent cold front is heading this way.  The front arrives tonight and temps will be much colder on Thursday and Friday. 

That's only part of the problem though - heavy rain is likely late Thursday and Friday.  Most of us will see a couple inches of rain, but this forecast from the NWS Weather Prediction Center shows the potential for up to 4 inches of rain around the Quad Cities over the next 5 days...after all the April showers this would not be a good thing at all!

2 inches would be 1 thing - 4 inches could be very bad news!
