.DISCUSSION...
A low pressure system will pass to the south on Saturday to bring 
a chance of wetting rainfall for North Carolina and parts of 
Virginia east of the Blue Ridge. However, rainfall may not reach 
West Virginia and Virginia west of the Blue Ridge. Dry conditions 
will take place for Sunday through the middle of next week when 
another low pressure system could bring a chance of showers and 
thunderstorms. While this weekend should turn cooler, a warming 
trend will occur by early next week.
