My high was 82.

Looks like rain chances increase as the weekend approaches with cold front dropping down. I see GSP has dropped the possiblity for Heat Advisories outside the Mountains the rest of the work week. My high yesterday was 81.

Please pin this thread @buckeyefan1 and unpin the Spring/Summer thread. Thank you Michelle!

Surprise shower at the house tonight.

The dry cool air was nice while we had it! Moisture is returning and appears Friday into possibly early Saturday is our best chance of rain.

The models are suggesting that moisture returns mid week and could continue into the weekend. It appears a frontal boundary stalls nearby and further enhance the potential for heavy rainfall amounts. Temps look to be near normal to end out August for the Mountains. Daylight continues to dwindle as Fall is quickly approaching.

53 here at the house this morning.

Nice cool morning in the Valley. I had a low of 61 at the house and a nice breeze out of the NW. I see Mount Mitchell had a low in the 40's. Tomorrow morning we may make a run at the upper 40's here!

Looks like an early taste of Fall will arrive this weekend extending into early next. My point and click forecast is showing low to mid 50's for morning lows!

Woke up to 60F this morning. Nice airmass change!

I got the property cleaned up and ready for our guests arriving tomorrow afternoon in the Short term rental. The sound of chain saws nearby all day and the neighbors above cutting down trees. I believe that's was the worst storm since Fred 5 years ago for our part of the Mountains.

I have a mess to clean up tomorrow with the large limbs and branches down, but I never lost power. Crazy lightning/thunder still ongoing, but the worst is over here

Big time severe storm just hit. Lots of damaging wind gusts exceeding 50 mph. Lot of large limbs down all around the house and I heard and felt trees coming down above the house.

Severe Thunderstorm Watch until 10 PM

No rain today here at the house, but chances look better tomorrow. I'm starting to see signs of the Eastern trough becoming active again through the end of Meteorological Summer. Fronts and lower dew points are looking pretty good to end the Month.
