More Noise Wednesday

Moisture abounds across the Southeast through the daytime Thursday, but most of us made it through the day without rain. Isolated showers and thundershowers dot the mountain region through early evening. Fog will develop again overnight especially along the Blue Ridge. Wednesday afternoon and Wednesday night will be the time frame for more showers and thunderstorms. A front passes through Thursday with isolated thundershowers ending by late afternoon. Wednesday will be warmer than today.

Forecast Discussion

An upper low over the Deep South moves west to the Louisiana coast with a "damp" east flow on the backside of high pressure centered near the Mid-Atlantic. There will be a few breaks in the clouds but for the most part skies stay on the cloudy side with spotty showers and thundershowers through early evening.

A cool front drops southeast from the Midwest through the Ohio Valley Wednesday generating a better round of showers and thunderstorms late in the day and at night. Widely scattered showers or storms continue through the first half of the day Thursday before drier air arrives late in the afternoon. We'll spend the following two days in comfort knowing at least the first half of the weekend will be dry.

By late Saturday and Sunday a northwest upper flow will send a few waves of energy crashing into the southern Appalachians. The potential is there for a few good rounds of showers and storms beginning Saturday night through the day on Sunday. Timing of these disturbances will be tricky and if rain is later to materialize Sunday then we'll be a few solid degrees warmer. By Monday, yet another cool front draws near with the continuation of scattered daytime showers and storms.
