.DISCUSSION...

High pressure will keep conditions dry through Sunday morning. 
Tropical Storm Chantal will move onshore in South Carolina by 
Sunday pushing showers and a few storms toward the Blue Ridge 
and Piedmont. This system weakens early next week but combined 
with increasing moisture and a front to the north will keep 
shower and thunderstorm chances around.
