Discussion
A much wetter overall weather pattern will set up for the eastern third of the nation this weekend and likely continue right through next week. An unusually deep upper-level trough is likely to form over the Upper Midwest early this weekend and this will become a slow-mover. In addition, a strong coastal low pressure system may very well form on Saturday potentially causing some significant rainfall and gusty winds near the coastline. As a result of this unfolding pattern change, the threat for showers and thunderstorms will increase later in the day on Saturday and then likely continue through much, if not all, of next week.
