Drier air moving in...

Scroll to the post below this one for the radar images of a rotating thunderstorm in eastern Tennessee last night.

Here's today's edition of the video...


A cold front is progressing through the region today, and that front will usher in some drier air for us for a couple of days. Highs today will be in the 89-92 degree range for much of the region. The best chance of any storms today will be roughly from I-95 over toward the coast.

We are setting up for some very nice Saturday weather. Look for low levels of humidity and lots of sun....and the chance of rain will be very low. Highs tomorrow in the Piedmont look to be in the upper 80s to around 90.

I will maintain a small chance of a few storms very late Sunday, but it's really looking like Monday is the day with good chance of showers and storms as a disturbance approaches from the west.

Scattered showers and storms today...

Showers and storms that were over Alabama and Georgia during the pre-dawn hours will be working into the Piedmont later this morning and into this afternoon. Due to the early arrival of the showers and storms, temps in the I 85 corridor will be held down.....look for 80s for highs.

For tomorrow and Saturday, the coverage of showers and storms will be less....probably in the isolated category. Highs will be in the upper 80s and lower 90s for most.

It still looks like better storm chances will arrive again for Sunday and Monday.
