Easter forecast and beyond
What's next:
On Easter Sunday our pattern changes again as April showers are back in store for portions of the state.
The day will still start off with sunshine statewide with high temperatures climbing to the low 60s.
Morning and early afternoon activities will remain dry, but from the south, cloud cover will increase with the chance of rain showers by late afternoon. Rain showers will mainly impact the southeastern portion of the state, including the metro, with up to half an inch of rain, and isolated accumulations of over an inch possible.
Next week, we continue an active pattern. Monday morning rain showers will come to an end during the pre-dawn hours and sunshine will make its return.
However, several rounds of rain will be monitored throughout the week. As for temperatures, an April-like trend will hold seasonable conditions with the upper 50s to 60s expected.
