Still plenty of sunshine in the forecast today as low pressure & severe weather continues to bully the Midwest states. Frontal boundary traversing the Great Lakes today will sag south, tossing some moisture & cloud cover into the northern & western zones of West Virginia. Still, rain/Tstorm chances are slim & limited to those portions of our state today. Any storms that do manage to make it this far east will have weakened considerably upon crossing the Ohio River. Strong winds would be the primary threat for those northwest WV.
A weak southerly air flow will keep temperatures consistent with highs in the low 80s during the day today. A stronger southerly flow will take hold tonight, keeping overnight lows much warmer than what we have seen over the past few nights.
Warmer trend continues Thursday temperatures inching close to 90 during the day. This daytime heating will combine with another wave of upper level disturbance to bring lower cloud cover & a few scattered rain showers and thunderstorms Thursday afternoon and into the night. Forecast still needs fine tuning but am thinking we'll see a few bands of storms cross the mountains Thursday night/Friday...weakening as they progress east.
Friday, temperatures will hold in the upper 70s/low 80s. Upper level disturbance will keep generally cloudy skies for most of the day. Good chance for rain showers & thunderstorms to still be firing off during the day. Skies begin to clear, rain pulls away Friday night, into Saturday.
A few stray thundercells are possible from Saturday into the beginning of next week. However, overall trend will stay dry & much warmer. Highs in the low 90s are in store to finish out the holiday weekend & to start next week.
