Outlook
A low-pressure system west of the region will continue to pump moisture from the Gulf of Mexico over the southern Appalachians and surrounding areas through today. A cold front will arrive from the northwest tonight, but likely stall over the region on Tuesday, with abundant moisture returning through Wednesday. Another cold front will finally push through the region late in the week to bring in drier air from the west.

**Note** A Tropical Weather Outlook section has been added to the daily weather briefing for the Atlantic Hurricane Season, and since those tend to run long when there is activity, that section has been added between the daily forecasts for the four regions of the county and the almanac section so people can get to their daily forecasts with minimal interference.
