rainfall amounts over the next five days not all that bad. watching most of the rain over tennessee. not over the ohio river basin. that s good. they ll get a break and everyone pretty much east of the mississippi river got a break this weekend. record highs from l.a. all the way up into areas fargo, north dack. think of the movie, think it s freezing cold. think snow up to your waist. it was 75 degrees in fargo yesterday. it the only thing left is a few snow banks. record highs continue today. we ll be 78 in denver. omaha could be 85 degrees. this is only the middle of march. st. louis had 78. oklahoma city they re worried about brush fires and wildfire danger because it s going to be warm and still wind pip notice the only exception in new england where it s cool. heading towards st. patrick s day, a nice forecast across the country once again a little cooler in northern portions of the nation but not too many problems out there for all the festivities, jose. that ohio river stuff
