Forecast Discussion
Today's heat is helping produce scattered showers and thunderstorms, some with heavy downpours and gusty winds. The action settles down overnight with some dense fog towards morning.
Wednesday and Thursday will be warm and humid with scattered showers and thunderstorms, mostly of the PM-variety. A cold front will be pressing into the region on Thursday, passing through the mountains Thursday night.
A refreshing air mass will be pushing into the region on Friday behind the front. Skies will turn clear and we couldn’t script a better start to the holiday weekend. We may not be able to keep the weekend dry in its entirety however. By late Sunday or Memorial day, a warm front will be developing to our west. As a result, some showers/thundershowers may try to sneak into our region from the Ohio Valley on a northwesterly wind flow aloft.
