Good evening, folks. I wanted to drop by to talk about the upcoming pattern and the big change that’s on the way. We know it’s finally going to feel like fall by Friday, but we are really searching for much needed rainfall and the European Model continues to be our focus.

Before getting into that, we are launching a weather podcast at WKYT. The cover photo is reason enough to give it a listen…

This model has really been going all in on rain from Sunday through early next week. This afternoon’s run took it to the extreme developing a winter looking system. Check out the huge cutoff low on the model…

It brings a front in here late Sunday and Monday, slows it down then let’s a monster storm system develop along the boundary…

That’s one heck of a storm system the model is showing and would give us a lot of rain, gusty winds and chilly temps.

Rainfall from this run could actually be troublesome…

Is the European Model overblown? Odds strongly favor it being too strong with this overall setup, but in this extreme setup we’re in, anything is possible.

Make it a great evening and take care.
