Just wanted to say that I have the time to begin blogging again and plan to update the blog on a more regular basis with weather information for Eastern Tennessee.  I hope you find my blog useful and look forward to feedback.

Forecast Discussion:

It does look like the areas weather pattern will switch from the rain we encountered early this week to a more tranquil pattern.  The area will be under surface high pressure along with translated upper level ridge.  Temperatures across the area will stay in the mid to upper 80s and lows in the lower to mid 60s.  We could experience orographic based isolated thunderstorms as is typical across the area during the summer months.  The more interesting weather will be in the far northern plain states where a strengthening upper level low will move through the area resulting in the potential for severe weather.
