ROANOKE, Va. – High pressure has moved into the region and will dominate the weather pattern for a while. Clear skies, moderate temperatures and dry air is currently making our weekend forecast fantastic!
Dry air is indicated in orange on water vapor imagery. A lot of the mid-Atlantic is dealing with these near perfect conditions and will do so for quite some time.
Saturday’s temperatures will be right around our average for this time of year. Though a few of us may exceed the average and reach the 80° mark. Nonetheless, sunny skies build in with a few clouds here and there.
College football kickoffs look great this weekend. Game conditions should be picture-perfect through the entirety of this weekend’s games. Tailgating is also a thumbs up! The only thing to be mindful of is the uv index (high). Bringing along some sunscreen is always a good idea.
