Another Surge of Cooler Air Coming

Today shouldn't be as active as yesterday, thunderstorm-wise, but it won't be completely dry either. Isolated showers or t-showers will be possible through early this evening. A cold front comes through tonight bringing a noticeably cooler airmass to the area for your Memorial Day weekend. Near-record lows will be possible Saturday morning. The rest of the weekend should stay dry and pleasant for the most part. Early next week, t-storm chances return along with warming temps.

Forecast Discussion

After an active day yesterday, today should be a bit more tame in the t-storm department. That doesn't mean it will be completely dry, though. A few locations have already seen a few showers early this morning and additional showers or t-showers will be possible this afternoon. But, the coverage should be more isolated compared to yesterday. A slow-moving cold front that stretches from the Great Lakes to western TN this morning will get a bigger push this afternoon. This will help speed the front up some with a passage through the area expected late this afternoon or early this evening.

That front will usher in an unseasonably cooler airmass for the weekend. How many times have we heard that this Spring!? Friday will be the coolest day with highs only expected to be in the 60's...about 10-15 degrees below normal. It will be windy as well with gusts of 35+ mph possible. At night, the winds will begin to decrease somewhat (especially in the valleys) which will allow for near record lows in spots (see the record lows in jeopardy below).

The rest of the Memorial Day weekend looks to stay dry with slowly moderating temperatures (although, it will still remain below normal through Sunday).

Next week, a warm front will approach the area from the SW and potentially stall near or just north of the area. With the front nearby, afternoon chances of showers and t-storms will begin to go back up once again. Temperatures should warm back to normal as well.

RECORD LOWS FOR SATURDAY MORNING

Asheville (downtown): 39 (1925)
Asheville (airport): 37 (1951)
Waynesville: 35 (1951)
