DISCUSSION
VARIABLE CLOUD COVER IS EXPECTED THIS EVENING INTO
TONIGHT AS A WARM FRONT LIFTS NORTHEAST INTO THE OHIO VALLEY. THE
MOST FAVORED OUTCOME OVER THE BURN AREA IS FOR RAIN-FREE WEATHER
AND FAIR MOISTURE RECOVERY AS THE BETTER RAIN CHANCES OCCUR
FURTHER NORTH. EVEN SO, THERE IS STILL A LOW-END OPPORTUNITY (~20%
CHANCE) FOR A LIGHT SHOWER TOWARD SUNRISE FRIDAY MORNING.
A STRONG STORM SYSTEM OVER THE MIDDLE OF THE NATION WILL BEGIN TO
HAVE MORE INFLUENCE ON OUR LOCAL WEATHER ON FRIDAY AND SATURDAY
BY BRINGING AN INCREASE IN WINDS OUT OF THE SOUTH TO SOUTHWEST.
GUSTS UP TO AROUND 20 MPH CAN BE EXPECTED EACH DAY. THE AIR
CARRIED IN ON THESE WINDS WILL ALSO RESULT IN A MODEST INCREASE IN
DEW POINTS AND MINIMUM RELATIVE HUMIDITY. A SHOWER CAN'T BE RULED
OUT LATE IN THE DAY ON FRIDAY AS WELL, BUT THE PROBABILITY IS
LOW.
