Severe weather outlook and possible frost

[April 02, 2007] A low pressure system will drag a cold front across the state on Tuesday. Thunderstorms are expected to develop along the front by Tuesday afternoon. There is a slight risk that some of these storms could become severe, with the primary threat being large hail and damaging winds. Wind profiles with this system suggest that bow echoes and isolated tornadoes are also possible.

Flooding is also expected to continue into next week on area rivers, including the Illinois and Wabash rivers.

Overnight low temperatures Wednesday night through Saturday night will fall below freezing. Residents who already have plants and flowers blooming outside should consider covering them or bringing them indoors for the next several days.
