A frontal boundary remains stalled across the region today and
into tonight before lifting northward as a warm front late tonight
into early Thursday. A slow moving area of low pressure and cold
front will then impact the region from Thursday through Friday.

.NEAR TERM /THROUGH TONIGHT/...

.SHORT TERM /THURSDAY THROUGH FRIDAY NIGHT/...
A stalled frontal boundary across the region begins to lift
northward as a warm front late tonight into early Thursday
morning. A weak area of low pressure passes west and north of
the area through Thursday night dragging a cold front across the
area. Chances for showers and possibly thunderstorms continues
tonight into Thursday, and with increasing precipitable water up
to 2 inches and frontal lift periods of moderate to heavy
rainfall will be possible late tonight into Thursday evening.
Local nuisance flooding will be possible and much of the area
is in a marginal risk for excessive rainfall Wednesday into
Thursday. Additional a few thunderstorms could become strong
Thursday as low level shear increases, and gusty winds will be
possible. And all of the region is in a marginal risk for severe
weather. With this potential added gusty winds and heavy
rainfall to the weather Thursday into Thursday evening.
The cold front moves east Friday morning and the chance of
showers diminishes. And the area may be dry dry late day into
the night as weak high pressure builds into the area.
