03/09 Ryan’s “Clouds Return” Thursday Night Forecast

The last few days have been a nice break from the cloud covered skies the week started with, but the clouds are moving in again and may not leave until Sunday. Upper level flow is coming generally from the NW, which is pushing a few small disturbances in the pressure field through the Southeast. The first will move through tomorrow (Friday) afternoon, but this front will begin to wash out is it moves overhead. We’ll only have a small chance of showers, but I expect the skies to be mostly cloudy to overcast through most of the day. Another impulse is set to move through on Saturday, and this one will be better organized, but still on the weaker side. Expect showers and a few t-storms Saturday afternoon through some of Sunday morning before we’ll begin seeing any significant sky clearing and cooling. By Monday, the long wave trough associated with this front will be moving over the East Coast, bringing clearer skies, cooler temperatures, and drier air nearly all week long.
