Pockets of Illinois might just have enough time to get some planting in this week.

Ed Shimon at the National Weather Service in Lincoln on the WHOW Morning Show Monday told Regional Radio after nearly an inch of rain fell in parts of central Illinois Sunday, there might just be enough dry weather this week for some planting to take place.

Monday night saw a freeze warning and there is another freeze forecasted for Tuesday night but Shimon says that should be the last of the freezes for the season.

Shimon indicates things will remain cooler than average and rainfall will be above average. More specifically, temperatures will remain cooler for the first part of May. We'll have more on this later this week on Regional Radio.
