More opportunities for beneficial rain ahead

Tonight features a couple of isolated showers early but we’ll see a slow clearing of the clouds during the overnight. We’ll see partly cloudy skies and patchy fog tonight with temperatures a bit cooler with lower humidity as a northwest breeze behind our front kicks in, with lows in the upper 50s.

Friday provides plenty of sunshine with high pressure up to our north across the Great Lakes being the dominant weather pattern feature in our neck of the woods. Wednesday’s cold front will still be across the Carolinas and an isolated shower can’t be ruled out in our southern counties in the afternoon – however, most of us will be dry with comfortable temperatures with highs in the low 80s.

Saturday sees Wednesday’s cold front lift back up to the north toward our area. With the stalled front scooting pretty close to our region, expect scattered and storms to be a good bet, some of which could produce heavy rainfall once again. Highs will be in the upper 70s.

Sunday provides isolated to widely scattered storms as our stalled front scoots back down to the south. Highs temperatures will be in the low to mid 80s.

Monday continues the see-saw pattern of stationary front nudging, as this front looks to lift back to the north to the Virginia/North Carolina border. This will be close enough to give us the risk for more scattered showers and storms. Highs will once again be in the low to mid 80s.

Tuesday keeps the risk for scattered showers and storms around with a muggy air mass and a stalled frontal boundary remaining nearby with highs in the low 80s.

Wednesday continues our unsettled pattern with scattered storms likely by the afternoon and high temperatures around 80.

Thursday sees a front scoot through during the morning hours with afternoon clearing expected. Temperatures will remain near average for this time of year with highs in the low 80s.

Looking ahead in your extended forecast, it’s an unsettled pattern that will continue to provide opportunities for beneficial rains. Friday has a scattered shower risk with highs in the low 80s, isolated storms are possible for Saturday with highs in the mid 80s, and widely scattered storms are expected for Sunday with highs in the mid 80s.
