More Chances Of Rain And Thunderstorms....

Today will be much like yesterday where some areas see more rain than others.  We started off the morning with areas across the central Valley receiving rain and thunderstorms.  Currently the storms have generally set up along the upper level divergence zone along the border of Tennessee and Kentucky/Virginia.

Another big story will be the possibility for heavy rain across parts of East Tennessee with precipitable water index in the 1.8 to 2.0 across Tennessee this morning.  Temperatures should be in the mid to upper 80s depending on storms and cloud cover.  It will continue to be sticky outside with moist air continuing to stream north from the gulf.  Good chances of showers and thunderstorms continue most of the week with best chances for Wednesday and Thursday as more upper level support moves into the region.  expect high temperatures to continue to be in the lower to mid 80s depending on storms and cloud cover.
