.KEY MESSAGES...
1) Localized flash flooding remains a concern due to potential for
heavy showers and thunderstorms at times this weekend. Isolated
storms could also be capable of producing strong gusty winds.
2) Drier and trending warmer towards midweek, then another system
may arrive late next week.
&&
.DISCUSSION...
KEY MESSAGE 1...
A front sinks southward through the area this weekend while a low
wanders out of the Central Plains and into the Southeastern US. More
showers and thunderstorms are expected to traverse the area ahead of
and along the front today, with continued potential for localized
flash flooding to occur in heavy downpours. Poor drainage areas and
locations that recently received heavy rain will be the most
susceptible to flooding today. No changes have been made to the
Flood Watch, which remains in effect for the bulk of the area until
Sunday morning. In addition to flooding, a few stronger storms
could produce gusty winds.
While precipitation coverage should lessen behind the front
overnight, lingering moisture is expected to support some renewed
activity, primarily in the afternoon and evening hours, early next
week.
KEY MESSAGE 2...
Drier weather briefly takes hold Tuesday into Wednesday amid a
warming trend, then another system brings increased
precipitation chances for the end of next week. That being
said, the details remain a bit murky as to the timing of this
potential system.
&&
.AVIATION /09Z SATURDAY THROUGH WEDNESDAY/...
A variety of flight conditions will be possible throughout the
TAF period, with periodic restrictions occurring in showers and
thunderstorms today. After 00Z, expect another night of sub-VFR
ceilings and visibilities due to fog, stratus, and some lingering
showers.
Winds will be light and variable through tonight.
