Chilly Water

Strong upper level low pressure system continues to affect the eastern U.S. through the rest of the weekend. Rainfall totals statewide were unimpressive and it seems as though north central West Virginia managed to escape the worst of this weekend’s precipitation. Even so, water sports would be unwise as swollen creeks and rivers across the state are discharging an immense amount of water. Look for patchy morning fog, mostly cloudy skies and the occasional isolated shower Sunday and Monday as a few bands of leftover moisture depart.

Tuesday, things will begin to dry out and water levels will recede as high pressure builds into the area. So look for a few peaks of sunshine between partly cloudy skies. The rest of next week will be dry and calm. We’ll start next week with cooler temps, so expect daytime highs to reach the mid 50s while night time temps will bottom out just above freezing. We’ll see more sunshine and slightly warmer temperatures reaching 60 degrees for the second half of next week. However, we may be in the crosshairs of another strong low pressure system arriving by next weekend. Confidence will improve with every new run of the weather models. Will have more solid info about next weekend soon!

Also don't forget to set your clocks forward tonight!!
