Key Points – Tuesday, October 24, 2017:
Synopsis: Good Tuesday morning! Continue to have showers and drizzle moving back in, off-and-on, throughout the day today as a low pressure system lingers throughout the Ohio Valley…much cooler with highs expected to be in the upper 40s and lower 50s at best further south. We highlight in the video how the bottom drops out on temperatures Thursday morning with lows expected to get into the lower 30s…with calm winds and clear skies we are concerned for not only a hard frost but patchy freezing fog as discussed in the video. Eyeing the next front to move in Friday night into Saturday morning bringing our next chance for showers, maybe even a rumble of thunder. If you have any questions with the forecast please let us know, have a blessed day! -Kirk
