Rain is on the way then cooler temps, but the weekend looks nice so far

The US National Service in Huntsville said increasing clouds are expected ahead of the rain that will move in tonight. Showers and a few thunderstorms will continue into Tuesday evening as a cold front gradually moves eastward across the region.

Showers will come to an end by Wednesday morning, giving us a break from the rain on Wednesday. However, a second wave of moisture and rainfall moves northeast across the area on Thursday.

Cooler and drier air will then spread into the area late Thursday into Friday as a strong dome of high pressure settles into the Southeast states. Temperatures will be increasing again, though, as we go into next weekend.
