The wonderfully warm weather of the weekend now a distant memory, showers and cool conditions have taken a stranglehold on the areas weather and will continue to do so through the end of the week. The culprit is a broad disturbance in the middle of the atmosphere, which will continue to spin near the area through Friday afternoon. Individual pertubations in the flow of the atmosphere (smaller disturbances) will move up the east coast on Thursday, causing the development of showers with areas of embedded moderate to heavy rain. The rain is not expected to be overly widespread in it's heavy nature, but the showers will definitely make for a damp, cool, and wet forecast. Our area avoided much of the more steady shower activity on Wednesday, but Thursday looks to be a different story. The showers and poor conditions are forecast to continue through Friday morning, when the system begins to lift north of the region. Thereafter, clearing is forecast through Friday with winds becoming gusty out of the west on Friday night into Saturday. That being said, despite the winds, most will be happy to see the sun after the unsettled weather this week will have provided.
