Weekend looks unsettled with chance for showers & storms

Tonight features scattered off and on showers with temperatures only dropping into the low 60s. It’s a milder night in store and the weather will be unsettled – we’ll be seeing this trend continue over the next few days.
Saturday continues our risk for showers as Friday’s warm front is followed by a cold front on Saturday. A few showers will still be a good bet with high temperatures in the low to mid 80s. We’ll have some break in the activity but if you plan to be at the State Fair of West Virginia for its final day, just bring the umbrella in case you get caught under a shower or two.
Sunday keeps the risk for showers once again as our system takes its time getting out of the area. An upper level low spinning over the Great Lakes will keep showers around Sunday into Monday. We’ll see a few showers once again in what will be a wetter day than on Saturday with highs in the mid 70s.
Monday continues our risk for scattered showers with our upper level low nearby with highs only in the low 70s.
Tuesday features plenty of sunshine with high temperatures in the low 70s as a big area of high pressure noses in. This feature will keep our days dry ahead but we’ll also see a northerly breeze which will make for some very cool night and cooler afternoon temperatures. Temperatures Tuesday night will flirt with 50 degrees!
Wednesday continues our sunny conditions with a broad area of high pressure keeping the nice weather in our region. We’ll see in the mid 70s.
Thursday keeps the sun going strong and the summer-like temperatures returning with highs near 80.
Friday keeps the sunshine going with high pressure still in control. We’ll see highs around 80.
Looking ahead in your extended forecast, we’re looking at just isolated chances for showers ahead as a summertime airmass continues that will feature highs generally in the low 80s Saturday, Sunday and Monday.
