Good Tuesday to one and all. Cooler air is slowly but surely working into the region and this will give us a taste of September leading up to the holiday weekend. Conditions for Memorial Day Weekend will look and feel a lot different as muggy air and storms return.

The front continues to push across the region today with a big temp gradient setting up. 80 is possible in the far south and southeast with low 70s in the north and northwest. There is still a small shower chance just ahead of the front, but most areas remain dry.

Very cool air filters in here tonight and Wednesday. Check out the low temps being forecast by the Hi-Res NAM…

That’s some serious chilly for this late in May. Last week, I talked about the potential for some upper 30s and low 40s for this week. The models are certainly suggesting this as a possibility on Wednesday morning.

Highs later in the day will range from the upper 60s to low 70s with increasing clouds. A weak wave of low pressure scoots across the region with the threat for scattered showers and storms into Wednesday night…

NAMThursday and Friday will continue with our September feel with upper 60s to low 70s for highs. Low humidity levels will make for some excellent weather.

Memorial Day Weekend is just around the corner and things will turn much warmer. That is likely to come with a stormy price as moisture increases. Check out the increase in storms on the GFS…

Highs both days will mainly be in the 80-85 degree range with very muggy air in place.

Make it a terrific Tuesday and take care.
