.DISCUSSION...

Satellite imagery shows clouds are beginning to thin out or
dissipate from the southwest late this evening. Still have quite a
bit of clouds to move through however, and even have some spotty
light showers on radar. This should all continue to clear up
overnight though, with places in southwest Virginia and the Tri 
Cities area likely seeing clouds until almost daybreak tomorrow 
morning. Overnight lows will be tricky tonight. Dewpoints remain 
in the mid to upper 30s, even in places near Huntsville where the 
surface high is centered and winds have gone calm. Calm winds and 
clearing skies would favor lowering overnight temps. But all 
guidance favors mid 30s on the low end tonight. Between cloud 
cover, winds, and these dewpoints, this seems reasonable so kept 
that part of the forecast unchanged.
