Best Day Of The Week Arrives Friday…

  • Beautiful Friday!
  • Rain and thunder returns Saturday
  • Cooler early next week

TGIF…The best weather day of the week has saved itself for Friday.  Find a way to get outside and enjoy it!  After a delay in the arrival of drier air, we’ll (finally) tap into lower dew points tonight into the day Friday, but it’ll be short-lived.  Increasingly moist air will return as early as overnight Friday into Saturday.  Drizzle and showers could accompany a warm front lifting north through the region during the wee morning hours Saturday.  Additionally, thunderstorms are possible Saturday afternoon and evening as an upper trough surges southeast into the Ohio Valley.

The region will remain in a cooler, northwest flow pattern into early next week.  With plenty of upper level energy around, showers are possible (scattered in nature) during the afternoon hours into Tuesday.  Drier air will allow for partly cloudy skies to return to the forecast by mid week.

Upcoming 7-Day Precipitation Forecast:

  • Snowfall: 0.00″
  • Rainfall: 0.50″-1.25″

Drier Close To The Work Week; Unsettled, Cooler Weekend…

Screen Shot 2016-06-01 at 5.37.43 PMHighlights:

  • Drier close to the work week
  • Strong storm chance Saturday PM
  • Unsettled and cooler early next week

Turning Cooler Over The Weekend…A cold front tapped into available moisture and resulted in locally heavy rain Wednesday afternoon and evening.  In some spots, as much as 2″ of rain fell in a very short period of time.  We’ll begin to dry things out to wrap up the work week, along with partly cloudy and less humid conditions.

An upper trough will dig into the Ohio Valley Saturday and could help spark strong to potentially severe thunderstorms for portions of the region Saturday afternoon and evening.  We’ll keep a close eye on things over the next day or two.

We’ll turn significantly cooler over the weekend into early next week.  With plenty of upper level energy around the region, we’ll have to mention the chance of a scattered shower into early next week. Dry conditions return by the middle of next week.

Upcoming 7-Day Precipitation Forecast:

  • Snowfall: 0.00″
  • Rainfall: 0.50″-0.75″

Local Downpours Wednesday…

Screen Shot 2016-05-31 at 10.09.58 PMHighlights:

  • Scattered Midweek Storms
  • Cooler and unsettled this weekend
  • Cooler than average open to next week

Haves And Have Nots…A cold front will move through the region Wednesday evening and result in scattered showers and thunderstorms, especially in the afternoon and evening hours.  While there will be some localized heavy downpours, not everyone can expect heavy rain tomorrow.  We’ll note a wind shift and drier air Thursday.

As we progress into the upcoming weekend, a trough will begin to carve itself out over the region.  Not only will this provide a cooler air mass, but multiple upper level disturbances will track through the region, helping keep things rather unsettled at times this weekend into early next week.  While we’re not talking about heavy rain, there will be rainy periods at times as these pieces of upper level energy move through.

Upcoming 7-Day Precipitation Forecast:

  • Snowfall: 0.00″
  • Rainfall: 0.50″-1.00″ (locally heavier totals)
