An upper-level trough will intensify today over the Tennessee Valley as the combination of northern and southern stream energy pushes east from the middle of the country. As a result, showers and thunderstorms are likely in this region later today and tonight and high moisture content in the lower levels of the atmosphere can help to generate some heavier rain bands - perhaps even a strong thunderstorm or two. The upper-level trough will shift to the east of here on Friday and the weather should improve nicely going into what looks like a pretty promising weekend.

Deep upper-level low pressure will intensify over the next 24 hours as it slowly grinds its way across the southern states. The combination of this strong wave of energy in the upper atmosphere and an influx of very moist tropical air will result in a severe weather threat later today and tonight in the Deep South. In addition to the severe weather threat which includes the potential for hail and isolated tornadoes, heavy rainfall is likely later today in the southern states and localized flooding is a concern as grounds are well saturated. The threat for heavy rainfall and severe weather will shift to the eastern seaboard late tomorrow and tomorrow night with the possibility of strong-to-severe thunderstorm activity extending from the Mid-Atlantic region to Florida.

Deep upper-level low pressure will intensify today as it slowly grinds its way across the southern US. The combination of this strong wave of energy in the upper atmosphere and an influx of very moist low-level air will result in a severe weather threat today in Mississippi, Alabama and perhaps Tennessee. In addition to the severe weather threat which includes the potential for hail and tornadoes, heavy rainfall is likely here and flash flooding could be the result as grounds are well saturated. The heavy rainfall and severe weather threat will reach the eastern seaboard on Friday with the possibility of strong-to-severe thunderstorms from the Mid-Atlantic region to Florida.

Deep upper-level low pressure will intensify over the next couple of days as it slowly grinds its way across the southern states. The combination of this strong wave of energy in the upper atmosphere and an influx of very moist low-level air will result in a severe weather threat today in the region from Texas-to-Kansas and later tomorrow across Mississippi, Alabama and perhaps as far north as Tennessee. In addition to the severe weather threat which includes the potential for large hail and tornadoes, heavy rainfall is likely later today in the south-central states and then on Thursday across the southeastern US. Any heavy rainfall can result in localized flooding as much of the eastern half of the nation is experiencing well-saturated ground conditions. The heavy rainfall and severe weather threat will reach the eastern seaboard on Friday afternoon and evening with the possibility of strong-to-severe thunderstorms from the Mid-Atlantic region to Florida.

An upper-level ridge of high pressure will continue to result in dry, warm conditions, but important changes are coming. A deep upper-level low will push eastward by Thursday dragging a cold front into the Mississippi Valley. This front will slow down as it reaches this area and that stalling pattern will allow for the possibility of a significant rain event here as well as a threat for severe weather including possible tornadoes. The most likely timing on Thursday for the greatest severe weather threat will be during the afternoon and evening hours. The good news is that this strong system will push out of here for the upcoming holiday weekend.
