WE CURRENTLY HAVE A DEEP UPPER TROUGH OVER CENTERED OVER THE GREAT
LAKES AND MISSISSIPPI VALLEY REGIONS AND A SURFACE COLD FRONT IS
LOCATED ALONG OUR NORTHWEST BORDER COUNTIES OF THE PLATEAU AND SW
VA. THE TROUGH AXIS WILL SHIFT EAST OVERNIGHT, AND THE COLD FRONT
WILL PUSH THROUGH OUR AREA THIS EVENING/TONIGHT BEFORE EXITING TO
OUR EAST BY SUNRISE SUNDAY MORNING. INSTABILTIY IS VERY LIMITED
ACROSS OUR AREA, BUT WE WILL CONTINUE TO SEE SHOWERS AND POSSIBLY A
FEW RUMBLES OF THUNDER (MAINLY SOUTH AND EAST AREAS) THIS AFTERNOON.
THE PRECIPITATION WILL BE DIMINISHING FROM THE WEST THIS AFTERNOON
INTO EARLY EVENING, BUT A FEW SHOWERS WILL LINGER TONIGHT ESPECIALLY
NORTH AND EAST AHEAD OF THE COLD FRONT.
SURFACE HIGH PRESSURE WILL BE BUILDING IN FROM THE NORTH AND
NORTHWEST SUNDAY ALONG WITH DRIER AND COOLER AIR. SUNDAY WILL SEE
HIGH TEMPERATURES AROUND 7 TO 10 DEGREES BELOW SEASONAL NORMALS,
WITH MOST VALLEY LOCATIONS TOPPING OUT IN THE 70S. THE DRY WEATHER
IS THEN EXPECTED TO CONTINUE THROUGH THE UPCOMING WEEK. TEMPERATURES
WILL GRADUALLY EDGE UPWARD, WITH HIGHS DURING THE LATTER PART OF THE
WEEK EXPECTED TO BE AROUND TO SLIGHTLY ABOVE NORMAL FOR THIS TIME OF
YEAR.
