Area Forecast Discussion
National Weather Service Morristown TN
302 AM EDT Fri Aug 30 2019

.SHORT TERM (Today and Tonight)...Overall...it should be a quiet
short term with high pressure continuing to dominate area weather.
Any morning fog should dissipate shortly after sunrise. For the
rest of the day...expect a few clouds moving through with
continued dry conditions and slightly warmer temperatures. With a
slight increase in dew points and a warming air mass...lows
tonight will a bit warmer with reading across most valley
locations expect to be in the 60s.

.LONG TERM (Saturday through Thursday)...Weak upper level impulses 
will slide by to our north early in the period, but the atmosphere 
will remain rather dry and right now it appears any convection will 
generally stay to our north.  By Wednesday models show a stronger 
short wave moving through the flow to our north, and a weak cold 
front sagging south toward our area.  Moisture still looks limited, 
but will include slight chance PoPs on Wednesday and again on 
Thursday as some isolated convection may manage to develop over our 
area. Still considerable uncertainty with the future track of 
Dorian, but right now models are keeping Dorian well to our 
southeast through the end of the long term period with little 
impact on our area through Thursday.
