There is also a SLIGHT risk for severe weather for Saturday.
Flooding is going to become a problem with the rainfall moving through over and over into the weekend. Flood Watches are in place.
The amount of rain, on top of the rain we have already seen is incredible. Some spots near Tennessee could see an additional 4-7 inches of rainfall. Turn around, don’t drown!
Saturday morning, temperatures in the 50s and 60s. You can defiantly see where that front is.
Saturday, temperatures cooler out west and warmer towards the southeast.
