Forecast Discussion

A front approaches from the west tonight eroding the cold air wedge was in place. Temperatures actually increase overnight as steadier rain falls with a few rumbles of thunder in the mix early this evening. Thursday has mostly morning rain and an impressively mild turnaround compared to yesterday and today.

The front stalls across the Southeast Friday and Saturday. Rain continues at times both days, but Friday is the wetter of the two days. Finally a stronger cold front moves through Sunday along with morning rain and a milder afternoon, but behind the front we actually dry out and temperatures return to seasonal levels.
