Five Star Weather

In our case, it is 5 Golfball weather and that is what we'll have for the next few days. Sunshine, comfortable temperatures and no threat of rain until Thursday. Even Thursday, there is only the slightest chance of rain. We start to get back into a typical summer pattern of warm and humid with afternoon showers and thundershowers popping up on Friday and that lasts through the weekend.

It's Calendar time again! Through August 26, we are selling the 2019 Blue Ridge Parkway Calendar at the pre-publication price of $12. Order yours now at RaysMarketplace.Com. We will begin shipping them August 27 and they will begin appearing in stores around the same date.

Forecast Discussion

Dry stable air associated with high pressure has settled in over western NC and it will hang out through the midweek. By Thursday, the air mass gets a little more moist and unstable but only enough for isolated PM showers and storms.

A cold front from the NW will move close to us Friday and Saturday but it will not pass through. It will stall over KY and VA and eventually wash out. The vicinity of the front and its remnants will put us back in a typical afternoon shower and thunderstorm pattern beginning Friday and that lasts through the weekend.

We hope you enjoy the next 3 days as the weather should be excellent for getting outside.
