Discussion
After the severe weather of yesterday, much calmer conditions are coming to the Tennessee Valley as we close out the work week, but the calm will be short-lived. The weekend will become quite unstable with the threat for showers and thunderstorms on Saturday, Saturday night and Sunday morning ahead of the next strong frontal system. Given the heavy rainfall of yesterday, flash flooding will likely be a serious threat over the weekend with the additional heavy rainfall expected. A cold front moves through the region later in the day on Sunday bringing us some relief as we start the new work week, but even that looks to be short-lived.
