Wind Hazards Saturday
Rainfall Returns Sunday
Rainfall thru Tues
A tight pressure gradient between a High off the southeast US coast and deep low pressure over the Southern Plains will allow for windy conditions from Friday into Sunday. Sustained south winds will range from 15 to 25 mph with gusts between 30 and 40 mph. By late Sunday into Monday, a stalled frontal boundary to the north will clash with rich Gulf moisture to produce showers and thunderstorms. Some of the stronger storms will have the potential to produce heavy rainfall in a short period of time.
