MORNING. HIGH PRESSURE BUILDS IN FROM THE NORTHWEST THURSDAY NIGHT
AND FRIDAY. A WARM FRONT WILL DEVELOP TO THE SOUTHWEST ON SATURDAY
AND MOVE JUST SOUTH OF THE AREA ON SUNDAY. HIGH PRESSURE RETURNS
ON MONDAY.

&&

.NEAR TERM /UNTIL 6 AM THURSDAY MORNING/...
SVR TSTM WATCH #59 IS NOW IN EFFECT FOR THE WESTERN HALF OF THE
CWA...INCLUDING THE MIDDLE/LOWER PENINSULA SOUTHWARD INTO INTERIOR
NE NC. MAIN THREAT WITH THESE SEVERE STORMS THIS EVENING AND

THIS LINE WILL QUICKLY MOVE EASTERN OVER THE NEXT FEW HOURS. WILL
WATCH THE PROGRESSION OF THESE STORMS THIS EVENING AND MAKE
ADDITIONAL UPDATES AS NECESSARY. WILL KEEP PRECIP IN THE FORECAST

&&

.LONG TERM /FRIDAY NIGHT THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
NOT TOO MANY CHANGES TO THE LONG TERM FROM YSTRDY. MID LVL QUASI
ZONAL FLOW WILL LEAD TO FAST MOVING SYSTEMS PUSHING OVER THE CONUS
INTO EARLY NEXT WEEK. WITH THIS IN MIND...THIS TYPE OF PATTERN ALSO
ALLOWS FOR A FRONTAL BOUNDARY TO BE DRAPED W/E ACROSS THE SRN MID
ATL RGN AND WAVER AT TIMES N/S AS SHRTWVS RIDE ALONG IT. THIS WILL
SET THE STAGE FOR CHC OF RAIN WHEN SHRTWVS MOVE OVERHEAD (TYPICALLY
LATE DAY SCENARIOS SEEM TO USUALLY OCCUR)...BUT CAN NOT RULE OUT
MORNING ACTIVITY AT TIMES. FOR NOW WILL KEEP CHCS OF SHRA ACTIVITY
(SAT/SUN) AND WILL LIKELY ALSO LEAD TO POSSIBLE DRAMATIC
TEMPERATURE DIFFERENCES N/S OF WHERE THE BOUNDARY LIES. GUIDANCE
HAS BEEN FAIRLY PROBLEMATIC WITH MAX HIGHS BUT THE GENERAL
CONSENSUS WOULD BE BLO NRML TEMPS FOR THE PERIOD.

&&
