ROANOKE, Va. – A cold front moved through the area Sunday evening, producing a line of showers and thunderstorms in the process. Behind it, the wind picks up with peak gusts of 25 to 35 mph at times Monday.
The wind comes out of the west and northwest, leading to a cooler day compared to the last several. Highs will mostly be in the 60s, and lows will drop into the 40s.
Tuesday will still be windy at times with our old storm system lingering over northern New England and Ontario/Quebec.
High pressure, however, becomes the dominant feature in our weather Wednesday through Friday. This means high temperatures reach back into the 80s. In fact, Thursday has the potential to be the warmest day of 2023 thus far.
Another storm system comes in to bring us showers and thunderstorms Saturday before cooler weather arrives late in the weekend into the final week of April.
