Discussion
A major storm will form over the south-central US by early this weekend and it has the potential to bring severe weather to the Tennessee Valley. An upper-level trough will swing from the Rockies to the central Plains over the next couple of days and southerly flow will begin to increase in the region. A warming trend will begin today and intensify on Saturday with highs likely to reach the 70 degree mark on Saturday afternoon. Rain will accompany this warm up from later Friday into the weekend to go along with the developing unusually warm conditions. Thunderstorms are also likely to form and there is the potential for severe weather on Saturday as low pressure pulls out of the south-central US and treks towards the Great Lakes.
