Forecast Discussion

Showers and storms will linger across Athens, OH tonight as a moist and unstable air mass interacts with a weak frontal boundary draped over the region. These storms may be slow-moving and capable of producing locally heavy rainfall, leading to lingering flood concerns into the evening. Conditions will remain humid overnight with mostly cloudy skies and little cooling due to elevated dewpoints. As we head into Monday, the front remains nearby, keeping chances for scattered showers and thunderstorms in place, especially during the afternoon hours. Some of these storms may be strong, with gusty winds, frequent lightning, and heavy downpours possible. By Tuesday, rain chances decrease slightly as the boundary begins to lift out and high pressure gradually builds in from the west. Skies will start to clear with some sunshine returning, though the air will remain humid. The latter half of the week will feature a return to hotter and more stable conditions as upper-level ridging strengthens. Sunshine becomes more dominant Wednesday through Friday, and temperatures will climb each day.
