Current Radar
If you looped the radar at 304 PM, you saw one batch of showers move NE, the other NW, because why not.
As Meagan wrote this morning, rain is coming tonight. Moisture from an upper low and a surface low in the Gulf is surging north.
Here Comes Rain
Muggy Monday With Rain On The Way
Current Radar
It will be a muggy Monday under a mostly cloudy. The high temperature will climb to 81° this afternoon with a dew point in the sticky upper 60s.
The surface low that is currently in the Gulf of Mexico is pumping in lots of moisture into our area today.
More Tropical Moisture Arriving
Current Radar
Eclipse viewing looks poor tonight, although we may see a few breaks in the clouds.
We may see rain arrive after midnight, but models think it’ll break up upon arrival.
TROPICAL SYSTEMS BRINGING CHANCES OF RAIN, High Monday 81°
Check out the system coming our way from the south:

CLOUDY, A LITTLE MORE RAIN TODAY, High 80°
It’s been a soggy few days. Even though we’re not yet done with the rain, I feel a liiiiitle bit better about today.
Yesterday’s mid/upper level low (which created the rain) has moved north and washed out. Today there’s another system in the northern Gulf of Mexico coming our way:
No Washouts This Weekend, Have Rain Gear Within Reach

It doesn’t look too bad to be outside.
It’ll be overcast all day, for sure. High only 73°.
Current conditions:
There will be at least a little rain, but it should be the light, even drizzly variety.
Rain Update!
Current Radar
LIGHT, INTERMITTENT RAIN TONIGHT
At the risk of making too many analogies, the upper level low is, as I write this, spinning in a Reverse Sherman — working its way from Atlanta to Chattanooga.
The NW quadrant of the low is producing Crazy Ivan showers, all in compliance with what the models said they’d do, which is refreshing. Showers will continue off and on, working from east to west, before probably reducing in coverage later tonight.

RAINY FRIDAY – Early Birds: 63°, High: 75°, Sunrise: 6:37 AM
Rain appears likely Friday. It won’t be steady, and it won’t be much.
There’s slight disagreement with the models about when it will start.
Let’s start with the early one, the NAM4, which has a “too-soon” bias. It says 6 AM.
Dry Today, Rain Chances Return Tomorrow & This Weekend

By the evening hours, more and more cloud cover will begin to creep in from the east:
However, the possibility for some rain won’t arrive until tomorrow.
FRIDAY – Early Birds: 63°, High: 79°
Sunrise: 6:37 AM
As an area of low pressure along the east coast scoots north and west tomorrow, it’ll continue to push cloud cover our way.
Sweaty Fall: One More Day

Sweaty Fall Is Still Here, Why So Hot?
87° in fall is not unconscionable, but it is unacceptable. Still, it’s way better than winter, which is a horrible season and if you disagree we cannot be friends with me and Paul.
