.DISCUSSION...
A cool northeasterly flow amidst cloudy skies with periods of 
rain will keep conditions damp through tonight and Sunday. By 
Monday, high pressure should arrive to bring dry weather for 
the rest of the week. The next chance of wetting rain may not 
come until the following week, which will only worsen the 
ongoing drought across the Piedmont.
