Thanks for checking into theweathermanpodcom on this Sunday. It's the 20th day the month of April 2025. Easter Sunday Looks like our weather is going to be nice Really. Temperatures during the daytime on Saturday went all the way into the 80s from DC all the way up to the Boston area. Actually, the whole eastern seaboard was very warm and well above normal and a month it has been kind of about 2 to 3 degrees below normal in the eastern seaboard so far in April and of course yesterday is going to really change that bring us closer to near normal. But over the next several days it looks like our weather situation will change. We do have a frontal system moving through High pressure will build down into New York State and right in through the mid-Atlantic states. Still a strong southwesterly flow across the southeastern states, so it'll keep it warm there. But over the nation's midsection, from eastern sections of Kansas, nebraska through Iowa, locally severe weather in southern Missouri, southern Arkansas, northern Louisiana and east Texas. That's a frontal system that'll be arriving eastward, dying out as it gets to the eastern seaboard, but some locally severe weather expected in the nation's midsection and also in the central Mississippi River Valley.

If you are flying on this Sunday, it looks like great weather in Atlanta and also down in central and south Florida. No problems there. Charlotte's looking good. New York area no problems Weather-wise. It's going to be dry from Baltimore, philly, new York all the way up to the Boston area. Good conditions, no weather problems. To delay your flights into the Northeast Corridor on this Sunday. Out in Chicago different story though Some locally heavy rains and some locally severe weather will be just to the south. That's going to cause some extensive delays. One to three hours are a possibility. Also, looking at some scattered showers in Wisconsin, milwaukee and also into the southern portion of Minnesota, just edging to the south of Minneapolis, st Paul, but Iowa under a lot of rain and possibly some locally severe weather and thunderstorms from St Louis southward into southern Missouri, central and northern portions of Arkansas, from Little Rock eastward into the Memphis area by later in the day and on Sunday night. West Coast is looking dry from San Diego to LA up to San Francisco, but it looks like some rainy weather now moving into Portland and Seattle during the later afternoon on your Sunday.
