Steve Templeton: March 2007 ArchivesOpening Night is Sunday April 1st: Gametime 7:05 PM vs. The Mets It's Steve here in the weather center, and I wanted to update all of you who were interested in the Cardinals home opener forecast I provided last week. Things have changed...sort of. The general pattern I discussed is amazingly holding true. The storms hit on Saturday and move out allowing us to enjoy a dry Sunday. The big change is that the cool air may not...
It's Steve here, and yeah I know it's 9 days away and the forecast will probably change, but I thought I'd take a stab at it anyway. The Cards open up the season at home against the Mets at 7:05 on Sunday April 1st. So what will the weather be like? Well when we're this far away from an event, I like to look at the...
It's Steve in the weather center, and we finally start Spring on March 20th at 7:07 pm, it's the Spring (or Vernal) Equinox. The equinox is supposed to mean "Equal Night", because day and night are equal in length all across the globe. But some astute people will bring up the fact that if day and night are equal, the... It's Steve in the weather center, and I'm an allergy sufferer...and I've been suffering. It's not as bad as Summer and Fall, but I've noticed the itchy eyes and sneezes coming out of nowhere.

The first outbreak of the season occurred on March 12th-13th 2006. All in all, there were 48 tornadoes in Missouri and Illinois combined, and 7 fatalities all in Missouri. Here's a map of the tornadoes and their paths. A co-worker just asked me if we're done dealing with those cold days where the high temperature is in the 20s or 30s. I told her it's likely that those days are over and I don't see any cold Arctic air in our near future. Well Kent was just checking the Climate Prediction Center for a longer range outlook, and they seem to agree.
Well I hope everyone made it through this round of severe storms with no major damage to their homes or cars. By the way, if you didn't already know this, you can get live updates from the 4Warn weather team on KMOV.com when we have severe storms in the area. Matt and I were jumping back and forth from updating viewers on Channel 4 and much more detailed and thus lengthy updates on KMOV.com. But now, our morning storms are moving out... |
