Forecast Discussion

The last few days of March have relatively uneventful weather.

A moisture-starved front moved through this morning. Stray, light showers will dot the region; then skies clear over a very pleasant afternoon.

The front will be to our south Tuesday with low pressure moving west to east along the front. Skies become cloudy again. Stray light showers develops Tuesday aftenroon, mostly near the Blue Ridge. Colder air arrives Tuesday night on the back side of the low with spotty light rain and a few mountain snow flurries.

High pressure takes control of our weather Wednesday and Thursday. Wednesday will be cooler; Thursday slightly warmer; both have mostly clear skies.

The next front from the west arrives Saturday morning. The scenario may be similar to last Friday and Saturday. Clouds increase Friday. Some light rain is not impossible Friday afternoon, but a line of showers arrive later Friday night into Saturday night with thunder possible.

Clouds decrease Saturday afternoon and rain exits. Sunday looks a bit cooler with generally clear skies.
