Technical Forecast Discussion

Key Messages:

  • A rainy weekend is in store as a frontal boundary approaches our region.
  • Temperatures will also increase throughout the weekend.

Key Message 1

We can expect a drier day Thursday with temperatures in the low 70s as the front that came through Wednesday stalls to our south. Friday, the earlier mentioned stalled front will develop into a warm front and move north, causing chances of showers with imbedded thunderstorms throughout the weekend. It is unknown as of now if any storms will pose a severe threat. Along with this warm front, a shortwave ridge will begin to build as temperatures steadily increase back into the low-80s by Sunday.
