As a cold front marches into the Greater Cincinnati area, its arrival isn't just a passing event but rather a prolonged affair that sets the stage for a week-long soggy saga. Initially triggering scattered showers, the front then stubbornly stalls over the region, refusing to budge.
While there will be even more scattered showers overnight into the morning, mostly cloudy with peeks of sunshine takes hold around midday. Temperatures will fall to the low to mid 60s by daybreak.
This meteorological stalemate has repercussions beyond mere inconvenience, as it casts a shadow over The Flying Pig events. Organizers will certainly stay mindful of the safety concerns posed by slick roads and waterlogged pathways. With the increased humidity and warmth, pop up showers and storms will give us a summerlike pattern on Saturday afternoon.
Runners, too, find themselves grappling with the prospect of navigating a course made more difficult from showers, humidity and warmth. Highs both days will reach into the upper 70s with high humidity making it feel more like summer.
As the days unfold, the relentless downpours becomes a familiar companion, saturating the landscape and filling up rivers and streams. Additionally, I have a chance for rain or storms in the forecast for the entire extended period.
