Low pressure center continues to deliver lots of low level moisture to the area today. Overcast skies with rainy conditions persist while high water concerns begin to pop up, especially in the Eastern Panhandle. Occasional heavy rainfall & flash flooding could occur. Afternoon convection will spell potential for a few short-lived thunderstorms for eastern portions of West Virginia today. Scattered rain showers continue tonight. Temperatures will reach the upper 60s today & will fall into the low 50s tonight.

Low level mositure will linger for yet another damp dreary day Wednesday. Morning fog, more rain showers & a few thunderstorms will dominate the forecast, especially to the north.

This will facilitate the development of a few thunderstorms with more potential for locally heavy downpours Wednesday & Wednesday night. Temps fall to the low 50s tomorrow night.

Low pressure will slowly begin to exit to the north Thursday. However, enough moisture will stick around to keep a few scattered rain showers in the forecast during the day and even into Thursday night. High pressure will gradually build into the region & dry our skies by Friday evening. We'll stay dry Friday night and Saturday. Temperatures will warm into the low 80s for the weekend! More rain is in the cards for Sunday & into next week.
