Thursday is shaping up to be a VERY windy day.  The National Weather Service has placed the entire WBKR listening area under a Wind Advisory.  We could see wind gusts over 40 mph.

If you've been dreaming of a white Christmas, it may actually happen.  According to the National Weather Service, there is a chance (albeit a slight chance) of snow showers on Christmas morning!

Christmas is exactly one week away.  If you've been dreaming of a White Christmas, I'm sorry to say there doesn't seem to be much chance of one.  Though the Christmas season got off to an early cold start, Mother Nature seems to be keeping Old Man Winter at bay again. The forecast for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day is relatively mild.  It seems there's a much better chance for rain than for snow.

We're seeing a light wintry mix in parts of the WBKR listening area this morning.  However, according to Eyewitness News meteorologist Ron Rhodes, there's a potentially bigger system brewing for this weekend.  That's when we could see a combination of rain, freezing rain, sleet and accumulating snow.  Here's a look at the current National Weather Service and AccuWeather forecasts!

It may not feel like it this morning (after all, we woke up with the temperature in the teens), but we could set a new record high on Saturday!

The Winter Storm Watch issued yesterday has been downgraded to a Winter Weather Advisory.  However, according to the National Weather Service, we could still see a wintry mix and one to three inches of snow.

According to the National Weather Service, snow accumulation is expected for Wednesday night and Thursday.

I am not ready for this!  But, this morning on here on WBKR, Eyewitness News meteorologist Ron Rhodes said we could see snow early next week.  And we're going to see highs in the 30's.  UGH!

Pardon the pun, but the forecast for Halloween is looking frightful!  Eyewitness News meteorologist Ron Rhodes says a "pretty strong cold front" is on the way and "severe weather is not out of the question."

Well, here's more proof that we completely skipped Fall!  After starting October off in the 90's, we are now facing a Frost Advisory for the entire WBKR listening area.  Here's the latest from the National Weather Service.

Here in the WBKR listening area, severe weather is typically associated with April, May and June.  However, the National Weather Service is reminding local residents about our history of devastating tornadoes and storms that have occurred during Fall.  Here's a look at some of the most powerful tornadoes we have experienced recently.  As a matter of fact, we've had six major events since 2005.

The tornado that tore through Stanley in rural Daviess County on Saturday left quite a path of destruction behind. Chris Conley and Mean Motion Media has captured the storm's aftermath.
