.DISCUSSION...
A frontal boundary will approach the Appalachian Mountains this 
afternoon to bring scattered showers and thunderstorms, but this
activity should stay along and west of the Blue Ridge. The 
frontal boundary should stall on Thursday to prolong the chance 
of rain in the mountains. After a drier Friday, a stronger cold 
front should arrive by this weekend to bring more rain. Cooler 
and drier weather should follow into next week.
