Smoke on the Water

Smoke from the Canadian wildfires in Quebec will remain over the area for the next couple of days, creating hazy skies. Few clouds are expected over the next three days, and temperatures are expected to warm to normal by Saturday. Our next chance at rain looks to be Sunday, which may clear some of the smokey haze in the skies.

We Have Winners!
123 photographers submitted over 700 photos in the contest. Then almost 30,000 votes were cast in voting for the best photo. The overall quality of photos was amazing--we could have produced 5 beautiful calendars from these submissions! Click here to see all the winning photos.

Forecast Discussion

Canadian wildfires are producing smoke that's being funneled by a low pressure over the northeast and a high pressure over the western Great Lakes. This will cause hazy skies in the area for the next few days.

The high pressure over the Great Lakes has a ridge extending over the area, and will move over the Southern Appalachians on Saturday. This will prevent any clouds or storms from forming.

On Sunday, a warm front approaches from the southwest, bringing cloudier skies and scattered showers and thundershowers. These showers and thundershowers are expected through Monday, as a cold front moves through in the afternoon. The rain should clear some of the smoke in the skies. Skies clear overnight.

Tuesday and Wednesday look partly sunny for now, with the cold front along the Gulf coast.
