First Alert Forecast | The Last Day In The 70s
HUNTINGTON, W.Va. (WSAZ) - Anyone feeling a bit of a chill this morning (temperatures started in the 40s and 50s) will be happy to step across midday cruising into those pleasant 70s. A pleasant area of high pressure is in control, and the air circulates around it in a clockwise fashion. This means initially it drives in cooler air from the north-- not too fun for January but just swell for June. Highs today will again stay in the mid 70s this afternoon, some of the best weather in the whole country. Overnight tonight we’ll drop back through the 60s and 50s under mostly clear skies, good enough to keep the air conditioner off and save on your electric bill. Future days won’t fare so easily.
