252 AM EDT Thu May 21 2026
.DISCUSSION...
1. A cold front will drop down from the northwest late today and
tonight, ushering in a change in our weather for the Memorial
Day weekend. The new pattern will support a period of cooler and
more unsettled weather that could ultimately put a dent in our
drought as it persists into the middle of next week. At this time,
the risk of severe thunderstorms and flooding rain appears low.
