Saturday Forecast

Good Evening from Meteorologist Kristen Connolly….

We saw a beautiful start to the day with plenty of sunshine however that only helped to fuel the storms we saw pop up in the early afternoon. Across the area scattered showers and thunderstorms have built in with lots of rain falling. Some of the storms did produce some heavy rainfall. Coke County was under a flash flood warning till 7:30 pm. Be careful of ponding on the roadways.

Through the evening we should continue to see the scattered activity. Once the sun goes down the activity will diminish with lingering showers in the late evening. Overnight we will keep a twenty percent of showers but if any activity occurs, it should be isolated. Overnight lows will hover around 70 degrees.

With this upper level low still to our southwest we will see scattered clouds and another shot of showers and thunderstorms tomorrow. Temperatures will get up into the upper 80’s.

The beginning of the work week we will continue to see the upper level low push to the west. This will keep rain chances at thirty percent for Monday. To our East an upper level high will begin to build in however this means we will still have to keep rain chances in through mid week. With a high in place we still have the possibility of disturbances rolling around so thunderstorms are still possible.

Temperatures through mid week should get back to the low 90’s.

Have a great day!
