Trading spotty storms Monday for pleasant drop in humidity Tuesday

August to start out feeling beautiful before storm chances return later in the week

ROANOKE, Va. – The brutal heat we saw late last week has subsided, though it is still a bit on the sticky side on this last day of July.

That will translate to spotty storm chances in areas mostly near and east of US 220 late Monday morning into the afternoon. Any threat of severe weather is limited to areas east of US 29.

Aside from that chance for isolated storms, we expect seasonably warm weather for the final day of July.
