A cold front will close in on the Tennessee Valley late today and it will raise the chances here for PM showers and thunderstorms and some of the storms can be on the strong side. While the front does push south and east of here on Friday, another (warm) frontal system will push northward this weekend and continue our chances for showers and thunderstorms. Once that warm front passes through the local region, summer-like weather will return with temperatures soaring to 90+ degrees on both Saturday and Sunday.

Another very warm day is in store across the Tennessee Valley as high pressure over the western Atlantic continues to funnel into the local region very warm air from the Deep South.

While there can be some brief heavy rain associated with this system, the chances for severe weather are quite minimal. Following the frontal passage, the second half of the weekend is likely to be quieter with comfortably warm conditions along with copious amounts of sunshine.
