FORECAST DISCUSSION:
We keep the hot weather but see an increasing chance for thunderstorms around the Cookeville area for today and Saturday. Speaking of rain, we saw a late afternoon/early evening shower on Thursday as the door to the southerly flow has opened and taken over our weather. This door will stay open through at least Sunday. We won't have a complete 'wash-out' each day, but chances are best for rain during the afternoon hours and storms will be scattered.
PHOTO ABOVE:
I took today's photo earlier this week while walking with my wife and kids in our neighborhood. The cloud had a real 'UFO' look about it. It also had the appearance of a satellite view of a hurricane!
QUICK LOOK AT NEXT WEEK:
We will return to a dry/hot pattern with temperatures rising back into the middle 90's and some areas going even hotter. I've been asked a lot lately about when will the weather turn nice again. My standard answer is 'OCTOBER'...have a great day!
