Wet Thur/Fri; Sunny this Weekend!
Good morning folks! Looks like the models have come to an agreement and we can now raise our confidence level for the weekend, with sunny skies expected Saturday through Monday! Before we can enjoy the dry and sunny weather, we'll first deal with two days of wet weather as a front brings regionwide rainfall to WNC Thursday and Friday.

Picture Perfect Wed & Thur
Good morning folks! It was a wet commute to work this morning but it sure is nice to have rain falling across the entire region. Since Saturday evening, we have picked up on average 1.5" of rain across SW NC, with numerous locations north of 3" but alas, no 4 - 5" totals to report (our higher end forecasted amounts). The front is sweeping the region as we type this discussion and we'll end today (Tuesday) with clearing skies, noticeably cooler temps, and a drier airmass setti
