Man if this happens to this weekend after so many nice days in a row, people are gonna be mad! From LWX: ...there has been a trend toward unsettled conditions for the weekend...In fact, there is a possibility for coastal low pressure to impact the area, which would further enhance the threat for rain, some which could be heavy 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MN Transplant Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 Just like April, we are going to need a late stick save to stop this from being one of the driest Mays on record. 2nd place right now (0.43”) at DCA and nothing in store until the weekend. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CAPE Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 Pretty good write up from Mount Holly on the uncertainty with the weekend weather- The forecast for the much-anticipated holiday weekend remains uncertain. A cutoff upper level low is expected to develop over the southeastern US with an area of surface low pressure forming near the Carolina coast. The evolution of the surface low and its progression north will determine the sensible weather for our region. It is worth noting that past few guidance suites have trended a bit drier for our region. This is due to surface high pressure setting up just to the north of our region as upper level ridging builds north of the cutoff low. This keeps the surface low more towards the south rather than coming up the East Coast. This weekend does not look like a washout but each day currently features around 20-40% chance of rain. Did undercut NBM PoPs a bit to account for the drier trend among guidance. However, upper level lows can be tricky to forecast, and would expect shifts over the next few days in the exact location of where the low sets up. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Weather Will Posted May 22, 2023 Share Posted May 22, 2023 WB 12Z EPS for weekend. If it hits, we need the rain, it it misses on a holiday weekend, others will be happy. Win either way. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very dry first half of the year with a dying Nina. Then precip normalized as we went through the second half of the year into a Nino, culminating in a nice winter. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
