If you're traveling on this Thursday with the cloud cover moving in , if you're driving , say , down to the mid-Atlantic states or out to the Tennessee Valley . Looking at overcast conditions , for the most part there is going to be some occasional rain on I-81 southward to Roanoke and then even westward out to Nashville and northward up into Kentucky . That occasional rain , not the heaviest . The heavy rain is going to be later in the day on Friday and Friday night , but if you're flying down to Atlanta it'll be overcast with some showers , especially afternoon and evening . Mostly dry conditions in South Florida , although there will be some afternoon thunderstorms just off of the Keys and Miami and Fort Lauderdale .
