Monday Morning's Weather Discussion - FLASH FLOOD POTENTIAL ON FRIDAY!



We will see some showers and thunderstorms late this morning and this afternoon as a cold front passes through our area, bringing some short-lived cold air into our area.  This cold air will only last one day, and then things will warm back up into the 60’s for the rest of the 10-day period.  The possible heavy rain event for this weekend has moved up to Friday now, when we could get very heavy showers and thunderstorms with a strong upper level low-pressure system moving down into our area from Canada.  This system could draw a lot of moisture out of the Gulf of Mexico and off the Atlantic Ocean, bringing with it the potential for 2-4 inches of rain throughout our area on Friday, which would cause flash flooding.  Stay tuned.  After this system moves through on Saturday morning, things will clear out and remain warm for the rest of the 10-day period.
