Rain; Crazy Cool

Rain continues for your Sunday morning, with a decreasing trend during the afternoon. Temperatures will be running about 20-degrees below normal when compared to a typical day at the end of May. Improvement will be gradual on Memorial Day. Clouds hang tough and there will be scattered showers, but nothing as widespread as today. Slow and steady warming continues all of next week with greatly reduced (but mentionable) PM shower and thundershower chances each afternoon.

Forecast Discussion

We’re in the clutches of an upper level low, along with a surface low crawling northward into the coastal Carolinas. Rain continues today with excellent easterly conveyor belt of Atlantic moisture piling up into the area.

As the upper low slowly drifts eastward Monday and Tuesday, the coverage of rainfall will decrease substantially, but we will be holding onto clouds and shower mentions both days.

Wednesday and beyond, the pattern morphs into something more typical for the start of June: More sunshine, warmer temperatures and with daily small chances for showers and thundershowers during the afternoon and evening hours.
