Another significant rain event will get underway later today as a powerful storm begins to lift northeast from the northern Gulf of Mexico coastal region. This storm will not only bring us soaking rainfall – perhaps 2-3 inches with locally higher amounts – but also very strong wind gusts potentially past 50 mph. In addition, as the storm moves northward on Friday to the west of the I-95 corridor, warmer air will surge up the Atlantic seaboard and it’ll feel spring-like with temperatures climbing to 60+ degrees in the DC-to-Philly-to-NYC corridor. Given the already well-saturated grounds, localized flooding is likely to become a real concern over the next 24-48 hours.

A developing major storm system will continue to have an impact on the Tennessee Valley today and it will produce soaking rain for the eastern seaboard from later today through tomorrow. The deep upper-level low will slide east of here by tomorrow and colder air will pour into the region on its backside as we close out the work week. Temperatures tomorrow night could bottom out in the upper 20’s, but a rebound will take place over the weekend.

High pressure will begin to break down today as an upper-level trough begins to form in the Deep South. Moisture will begin to stream northeastward later in the day from the southern states and rain is likely around here later tonight night and on Thursday. Colder air will begin to filter into this region at the end of the work week following the eastward movement of the upper-level trough. The weekend is looking quite decent, but cool as high pressure should resume control across the area.

High pressure will stay in control for another day in the Tennessee Valley, but will begin to break down on Wednesday as an upper-level trough begins to form in the Deep South. Moisture will begin to stream northeastward on Wednesday from the southern states and rain is likely around here on Wednesday night and Thursday. Colder air will begin to filter into this region at the end of the work week following the eastward movement of the upper-level trough. The weekend is looking quite decent as high pressure should resume control across the area.

High pressure will control the weather around here for the next couple of days, but then things will deteriorate at mid-week. Deep upper-level trough will develop across the eastern third of the nation and the result will be more rain in the Tennessee Valley likely beginning Wednesday night and continuing off and on to the end of the work week. It’ll turn colder following the passage of the trough by the early part of the weekend.

A complicated system will keep us unsettled for the late week and weekend as it’ll be a slow mover. Surface low pressure supported by vigorous upper-level energy will head towards the Tennessee Valley and a secondary low pressure area will form near the east coast by tomorrow. The upper-level low will move only slowly through the Tennessee Valley and to the east coast and this will allow rain chances to extend from tonight into the latter part of the weekend.

The day will start off on the cold side, but a southerly flow will push slightly milder air into the Tennessee Valley on the back side of high pressure moving to our east. The combination of low pressure developing over the south-central US on Thursday and an upper-level trough to our northwest will increase chances for showers around here and the renewed threat of rain will continue right into the weekend.

Strong high pressure over the Plains will edge eastward into the Tennessee Valley and we’ll experience another day with below-normal temperatures along with dry and sunny conditions. Later this week, strong low pressure will form over the south-central US and spread moisture our way from the Gulf of Mexico region and into the Tennessee Valley. As a result, rain chances will increase around here on Thursday and the threat for rain is likely to continue into the early part of the weekend.

Strong low pressure off the North Carolina coastline will push out-to-sea today and colder air will filter into the Tennessee Valley region from the north. As a result, light rain this morning could mix with snow before it winds down later in the day. High pressure will then build into the Tennessee Valley on Tuesday from the central part of the country keeping us precipitation-free for a couple of days. Moisture will spread northeastward from the Gulf of Mexico at the end of the work week and our chance for rain will increase dramatically late in the week and into the weekend as it turns milder.
