Roanoke, VA – Saturday Evening Update
Radar scans as of 7:03 this evening are completely clear. We are likely done with showers and storms for the night. However, the weather-maker that brought the showers and storms will leave gusty conditions behind.
Winds are gusting around 15- 30 MPH across the viewing area. Gusts will be around 20 MPH throughout the overnight hours.
We will remain dry until next Tuesday when the chance for isolated showers return to the area. High temperatures for the next week will still be summer-like, in the 70s and 80s!
Temperatures will be in the 70s and 80s today as rain begins to clear out. While it may be muddy in a few localities, overall conditions are more on the dry side. There’s a chance a few showers and storms could pop up in the late afternoon and early evening, but most of that risk resides east of our viewing area.
A cold front passes through the region later today, which will drop temperatures into the low to mid 70s tomorrow.
The cooler weather doesn’t last long though, as we’re immediately back into the 80s later next week, with the possibility we could see temperatures as high as the upper 80s on Wednesday. Rain chances return to close the week.
