Forecast Discussion

A tropical low is moving east across Georgia today. It will be in South Carolina Wednesday, then drift slowly up the Mid-Atlantic Coast. A stationary front stretches from South Carolina to North Texas. It will remain there during the next seven days. No fronts from the west will reach us, but remnants of a faded front will move across the Southern Appalachians Friday and Saturday.

Today had moisture arriving from the south. Showers were isolated in nature but we still felt the humidity.

As the tropical low moves to our east, shower and thundershower coverage diminish Wednesday (widely scattered) and Thursday (isolated). Thursday will be noticeably warmer with more sun.

Friday continues warm weather, but expect widely scattered mostly afternoon thundershowers. Saturday will be slightly less warm with another round of widely scattered, mostly afternoon thundershowers.

If we can get a completely dry day, it will be Sunday. Then the front to our south edges closer, increasing afternoon thundershower coverage Monday.
