A cold front has moved into the Tennessee Valley.  Temperatures will slowly fall into the upper 50s early this evening with overnight lows around 40. It will be mostly cloudy and cooler for Tuesday afternoon with highs only in the middle to upper 50s.  The wind will be from the northeast tomorrow around 7-12mph.

Clear and cool early Wednesday morning with perhaps our last threat for a killer frost this season in many areas.  Clouds will increase Wednesday afternoon with highs around 60.  The wind will shift to the east throughout the day.

After fairly widespread light to moderate showers Saturday evening, we’ll have a brief dry break overnight into early Sunday morning. A few spotty light showers are possible for Easter sunrise services but I think, for the most part, we’ll be mostly dry.  Morning temperatures will be mild under the cloudy skies, in the mid 50s.

With clearer skies on the horizon, you may want to step outside this week to catch a glimpse of the Comet PanSTARRS. It will be viewable with the naked eye in the early evening over the next several days.  It  should be about as bright as most stars in the Big Dipper.  Each evening,  it will be a little farther to the right in the sky, and gradually over the next  few days, it will begin to grow dimmer.

PanSTARRS should be only one of two comets visible to the naked eye in 2013.  It is also believed to be on a ~100,000 year orbit... Pretty rare.
