Nice Finish

Sunday, June 24 in Asheville (BRP)

A frontal boundary is slowly working south through the Mid-Atlantic region and Ohio Valley tonight and Monday. It serves as the conduit for waves of showers and storms to impact the region Monday as the front settles into SC and Georgia Tuesday. We'll be on the southern periphery of the first round Monday morning so I don't expect much other than some isolated stuff. Better coverage of showers and storms return late tomorrow afternoon and evening, potentially lingering into the overnight hours.

Discussion

Nice Finish

We'll be watching a stronger cluster of showers and storms to head east from the TN Valley Monday as they ride along a stationary boundary. The first round generally misses us to the north, but I won't rule out a few stray showers Monday morning. Better coverage comes late Monday afternoon or evening and may continue into the nighttime hours.

The stationary front actually makes some progress southwards by Tuesday providing for a slight cooldown. The front washes out as the Bermuda high regains a stronghold across the Southeast Wednesday and beyond. I'm eyeballing Wednesday and Friday afternoons for the best remaining opportunities for afternoon showers of the week. However, the takeaway after tomorrow is largely a dry one overall with the exception of those lucky few who get more than their fair share.
