Forecast Discussion
That smoky haze aloft continues today and Sunday. It may continue next week, but we'll re-evaluate that after a warm front moves through Sunday evening from the south and a cold front moves through from the northwest Monday afternoon.
High pressure is centered over us today on its way to the Atlantic Sunday. Temperatures are warmer today. Other than that haze, it's a nice day.
The front that moved through Wednesday returns as a warm front Sunday night. Clouds increase Sunday, and scattered showers/thundershowers are expected in the afternoon. A few showers or thundershowers may linger into Sunday night.
A cold front moves through from west to east Monday. Expect scattered showers and thundershowers, ending by late afternoon. Clouds decrease late-day and Monday night leading to a pleasant Tuesday.
Monday's front lurks to our south next week until it fades off the map Friday. The return flow of moisture looks a little faster than we thought yesterday. So, scattered showers and thundershowers are possible Wednesday afternoon. Thursday has widely scattered showers and thundershowers, possibly not limited to the afternoon hours. Friday still has the potential for a stray shower or thundershower, but at this point, coverage looks less than the previous two days.
