Discussion:

More tranquil conditions are being observed early this morning
with the back edge of precipitation just about to make its exit
from our most south eastern zones. Temperatures will remain
mild overnight. The forecast for today through the weekend will
be dry. The upper levels will feature a moisture starved trough
making its way through the Ohio Valley on Friday with winds
aloft veering toward the northwest behind it. Surface high
pressure quickly fills in from the west for the weekend with
highs in the 70s to lower 80s and overnight low temperatures in
the 50s.

An upper level disturbance tracks from the southern plains and into
the Ohio Valley Monday into Tuesday. Rain chances increase
during this time with some thunder also possible. The remainder
of the week features quasi-zonal flow aloft with several weak
waves moving across the region keeping chance PoPs in place.
