TO BEGIN THE PERIOD, HIGH PRESSURE WILL BE SITUATED JUST TO THE EAST
OF THE STATE WITH SOUTHERLY FLOW AT THE SURFACE AND QUASI-ZONAL FLOW
ALOFT. THIS WILL SET THE STAGE FOR A SOMEWHAT UNSETTLED WEATHER
PATTERN GOING THROUGH AT LEAST THE WEEKEND. LATE IN THE PERIOD
(EARLY NEXT WEEK) AN APPROACHING TROUGH WILL BRING A COLD FRONT
ACROSS THE STATE, HELPING CLEAR SOME OF THE UNSETTLED WEATHER OUT OF
THE STATE.
AS MENTIONED ABOVE, AN ACTIVE WEATHER PATTERN IS EXPECTED WITH RAIN
CHANCES LIKELY ACROSS PORTIONS OF THE STATE THROUGH MUCH OF THIS
WEEK. WHILE ORGANIZED SEVERE WEATHER IS NOT EXPECTED AT THIS TIME,
GUSTY WINDS ARE POSSIBLE AND EVEN SMALL HAIL. ADDITIONALLY, HEAVY
RAIN WILL BE POSSIBLE WITH STORMS THAT COULD LEAD TO ISOLATED FLASH
FLOODING CONCERNS.
CALMER AND DRIER CONDITIONS ARE EXPECTED TO RETURN TO THE STATE LATE
SUNDAY INTO MONDAY BEFORE A COLD FRONT MOVES INTO THE STATE, FINALLY
CLEARING OUT THE RAINY PATTERN. ONCE AGAIN, SEVERE WEATHER IS NOT
EXPECT AT THIS TIME, ALTHOUGH, CHANGES TO THE FORECAST ARE ALWAYS
POSSIBLE THIS FAR OUT.
TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO AVERAGE TO SLIGHTLY ABOVE AVERAGE
THROUGH THE PERIOD. HIGH TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO BE IN THE
LOWER 70S TO MID 80S. LOW TEMPERATURES ARE EXPECTED TO DROP INTO THE
MID 50S TO UPPER 60S.
