Forecast Discussion

High pressure is anchored over the Mid Atlantic and provides us with one more pleasant day under mild temperatures. Clouds increase through the day as a cold front approaches through the Ohio Valley and a warm front lifts from the deep south into the Southern Appalachians. Widely scattered rain showers develop tonight and stay with us through the early afternoon Wednesday. Clouds will finally diminish late Wednesday with cooler temperatures under high pressure.

Skies clear Thursday while the cooler temperatures linger into Saturday. Thursday through Saturday will be nice with plenty of sunshine. Temperatures slowly rebound through the weekend. A developing warm front along the Gulf Coast will produce increasing clouds Sunday with rain late as it surges north. This front lifts through the Southeast and Mid-Atlantic ahead of our next cold front. Expect clouds and widely scattered rain through Monday.
