Waiting on Tuesday's Rain

A strong cold front is waiting in the wings via the Tennessee and Ohio Valleys and slowly moves through Tuesday. Significant rainfall develops overnight and continues Tuesday. The push of colder air, clouds, and rain make for a much cooler day tomorrow. After a few lingering morning showers drying commences Wednesday and crisp early fall temperatures hang around through the foreseeable future.

Forecast Discussion

Temperatures topped our near average today as we remained in a relatively mild pre-frontal airmass. That being said, today was warm compared to the next seven days. A potent cold front slowly moves through Tuesday accompanied by our fair share of rain. Showers develop overnight and continue through the day Tuesday into Tuesday night. When it's said and done we'll pick up another solid inch to inch-and-a-half of rain. I cannot rule out a rumble of thunder either.

After some lingering morning showers Wednesday the afternoon is brighter and breezy. A reinforcing cold front moves through Thursday with little fanfare other than a few brief showers. It may turn out that everyone stays completely dry.

Cool high pressure takes the helm Friday through the weekend. It will be a glorious early fall weekend, though feeling more like late October. There will be frost on whatever pumpkins are left in the field this Saturday and Sunday mornings.
