Typical early-Spring pattern across the Heartland

Across the Corn Belt, chilly conditions are generally confined to the upper Great Lakes region. Meanwhile, rain is falling along and near the Ohio River, signaling the start of another period of wet weather, even as water levels remain high. Moderate flooding is occurring early Friday along the Ohio River at Shawneetown, Illinois, where the river is more than 10 feet above flood stage. Mild, dry weather covers the remainder of the Midwest.

On the Plains, locally heavy showers and a few thunderstorms have developed early Friday in Kansas.
