ROANOKE, Va. – While Monday was cooler and raw at times, Tuesday will be the complete opposite.
The wind has since shifted direction out of the west. As that comes down the mountains, it will gust in excess of 30 mph at times. That downward motion in the wind will also allow the air to dry and warm.
High temperatures Tuesday afternoon reach into the 60s and 70s, and there’s no need for us to think otherwise heading into Wednesday afternoon either.
Clouds increase Wednesday ahead of rain showers that develop at night heading into Thursday. Thursday afternoon is dry, breezy and warmer.
As the front lifts to the north, more rounds of rain are expected Friday. However, the location of this front will be key to determining whether or not any storms can become severe later in the day.
