Weather Briefing for Memorial Day, May 26, 2025








GENERAL OUTLOOK

A stationary front draped across the Deep South will keep the weather unsettled across the area through today with several rounds of scattered showers and isolated thunderstorms expected. Unseasonably cool temperatures and widespread showers will occur on Tuesday as a wedge pattern briefly develops over the western Carolinas. A cold front approaches our area by midweek, resulting in shower and thunderstorm chances through the end of the week.
