Rain Could Threaten NASCAR This Weekend...

Our rain chances will definitely be going up over the next few days. That's not to say it will rain all the time or even that often, but the threat will be there. Today will produce mostly cloudy skies and a shower here and there, but mostly "dry" conditions. Warmer southwest breezes will boost Friday temperatures back above 80 degrees and the threat for thunderstorms will enter the picture later in the day, as our next front approaches from the west. So the weather could potentially be a factor in the Friday night race at RIR.

It will probably be a more significant factor in the Saturday night race, as scattered showers and thunderstorms are possible over the weekend, and particularly later Saturday into Sunday. Temperatures over the weekend will average in the mid 70s during the day.

Unsettled weather will probably linger into early next week as well, with readings in the upper 60s on Monday to the mid 70s on Tuesday.
