Much of the forecast area will be dry today, but locations closest to Kentucky (northern Plateau and southwest Virginia) will have a low-end threat of severe weather today and into tonight. The system bringing the severe weather and catastrophic flooding to the west, will stall and not move much east. Locations closest to it may become brushed by outer fringes of the line. There's a low chance of severe weather with the primary threats being wind and hail and possible tornadoes.
Unseasonably warm and mostly dry conditions will continue through Saturday. More widespread showers and thunderstorms move into the region for Sunday through Monday morning.
