An Unsettled Weekend Coming...

No change to the weekend forecast at this point...

We'll see a little sun tomorrow, and gusty southwest breezes will boost temperatures back above 80 degrees. Later in the day, expect a few scattered thunderstorms to develop. At this point, with most of the action scattered, RIR should be able to get the Lipton Tea 250 race in, although they may have to dodge some raindrops. Race time temperatures will average in the mid 70s.

It's Saturday's race that still concerns me. Numerous showers and thunderstorms will be over the region later Saturday and Saturday night. So the prospects don't look as good for the Russ Friedman 400 race. Race time temperatures will average in the lower 70s.

The rain will be due to a front that will wiggle its way back and forth (north/south) over the Mid-Atlantic through the weekend and early next week. That will cause occasional showers and thunderstorms to develop, so an unsettled period of weather is likely into early next week.
