Warm Wednesday; Cooler Thursday

Wednesday, April 08 in Asheville (BRP)

Wednesday will be another warm day with a stray late-day shower or thundershower. After a morning shower or thundershower first thing Thursday, it turns cooler. In fact, it will be cool enough for a heightened risk for a frost or freeze by Saturday morning across the mountains. Saturday will be the pick of the weekend as wet weather returns Sunday.

Discussion

Warm Wednesday; Cooler Thursday

We have an active spring weather pattern over the eastern part of the United States. It’s a mild, prefrontal environment again today featuring mixed skies and perhaps a pop-up afternoon shower or thundershower. A cold front will then sweep across Thursday morning, concluding the shower chances and ushering in a decidedly cooler air mass.

Friday will be sunny and noticeably cooler. With high pressure overhead Friday night, there will be considerable frost around by daybreak Saturday (you haven’t planted anything too early, have you? :).

Saturday definitely looks like the nicest of the two weekend days for outside activities. Low-pressure organizing over the Arklatex region will track to the northeast, spreading rain back into western North Carolina Sunday, probably concluding by early Monday.
