Active weather will continue today in the Tennessee Valley region with the likelihood of showers and perhaps a strong-to-severe thunderstorm or two. A cold frontal system with strong support aloft will be the cause of our shower activity today and it can perhaps set off the formation of a few strong-to-severe thunderstorms depending on the cloud cover situation. It’ll turn cooler later this week following the frontal passage, but an impressive warm up is coming this weekend and into the early part of next week ahead of the next cool front.

The overall flow aloft in the local region is westerly and we’ll continue to enjoy decent weather with some sunshine and highs not too far from the 80 degree mark.

Low pressure this morning will move towards the Mid-Atlantic coastline and loosen its grip on the region and we’ll enjoy a pretty decent day to end the work week. Yet another upper-level trough and surface low pressure will take shape on Saturday and keep us unsettled around here from later tonight into Sunday. By later Sunday, slightly cooler and drier air will push into the region following the passage of a frontal system. It’ll begin to turn warmer again early next week and – yet again – the chances for showers and thunderstorms will tend to climb.

A very active weather pattern will likely continue across the eastern half of the nation into the early part of May in large part due to a continuation of cold air outbreaks from Canada into the central and eastern US. These on-going cold air outbreaks are combining with increasingly warm and humid conditions across the southern US to help in the generation of storms and also has increased the chances for severe weather outbreaks; especially, across the southern states. In fact, tornadoes this year are running at above-normal levels and are the highest for the month of April since 2011. The next storm in a series of storms will impact the Mid-Atlantic region from today into late Friday and then another system arrives over the upcoming weekend and colder-than-normal conditions will persist through the period.

The overall active weather pattern across the nation will persist as long as cold air outbreaks continue to drop into the central and eastern US from Canada and indications are that this type of flow will continue into at least early May. Low pressure this morning will move to the southern part of Missouri and an area of showers and thunderstorms could move right over this region. There is the chance that some of the thunderstorms that head our way will reach severe levels with gusty winds, hail, frequent lightning and heavy downpours. Shower activity should wind down later tonight and Friday should be a dry day to end the work week.
