Windy days in the Midwest are nothing new for natives of the land, but this March has been one for the books.
Ed Shimon at the National Weather Service in Lincoln explains there is cold air to the north and warm air to the south and it is creating very windy conditions.
Predictably, March has been up and down in its temperature swings, but overall, Shimon indicates March has been about four degrees above normal, and that number could get higher with the warm air coming in Friday and through the weekend.
It likely goes without saying but this March has been abnormally windy and while he didn't have the exact data, Shimon notes they do track it and the data reflects that.
If you're hoping for a reprieve, Shimon indicates there's not a lot to suggest a change could be on the way. It will be a lot of rain, even thunderstorms, every third day or so for the next week or two.
Next week on Regional Radio, we'll highlight what is ahead for the remainder of the spring months and get a look at the summer projections.
