Clouds and Rain on the Increase

Enjoy the sunshine early today because we expect cloudy skies from this afternoon through Sunday afternoon. Rain will accompany the clouds Friday morning, take a break Friday afternoon and night and return Saturday morning. The rain finally clears out Sunday morning and so do the clouds later in the day. Temperatures will be near average through the weekend. We have some nice dry days coming up early next week with the possibility of rain by mid week.

Forecast Discussion

High pressure gives way to a cold front moving in from the west by tomorrow. The front will move through tomorrow afternoon giving us a break from the Friday morning rain. Low pressure develops over northern Louisiana and moves to eastern TN Saturday evening. This low will bring us rain and chilly temperatures for Saturday. The low moves off to our east Sunday morning and the flow behind it will bring some drier and cooler air. Sunday looks to be an OK day once the rain ends early in the morning.

High pressure will control our weather Monday and Tuesday with seasonal temperatures and mostly sunny skies. Another cold front moves in from the west by Wednesday with the promise of more rain.
