Isolated Storms....

Starting off the morning with some rain and storms across Northeast Tennessee.  The main area of rain has moved south with a few showers possibly moving into the area from Eastern Kentucky.

Most of East Tennessee is dry this morning but mild with temperatures in the upper 70s and the rain cooled spot Tri-Cities in the upper 60s. Expect a summer like setup today with storms firing up mainly across the higher terrain. Some of the storms could drift into the Valley with heavy rain being the main threat. The heat will also be a factor today with temperatures expected to get into the mid to upper 90s. These temperatures coupled with dewpoints in the lower 70 will make for high heat indices in the upper 90s to 100s. Make sure to take breaks when outside and drink plenty of fluids. Another similar day for Thursday with isolated storms possible and high in the mid to upper 90s. Again high heat indices possible as warm moist air moves north ahead of the cold front. Best chances of rain will be Friday with timing looking to be early afternoon right now. Clearing for the weekend with highs in the lower 90s.
