ROANOKE, Va. – A storm system offshore and high pressure to the west will help generate a breeze at times throughout the day Monday.

Gusts in excess of 20 mph will be possible, but there won’t be any sort of damage associated with that.

Aside from that, an increased breeze out of the west and southwest this week will push our temperatures up. Highs - especially Wednesday through Friday - will be in the 60s.

By Thursday, a front nearby could spark a few showers, but most of its energy will be focused farther north. That’s where the most widespread precipitation will be.

As the front slows down, another system will ride along it and give us a better chance of rain Friday.

Saturday will be colder and breezier than Sunday. Either way, the weekend appears mostly dry.
