Scattered rain showers, breezy winds, and temperatures in the upper 40s to low 50s are making it feel more like an early Spring or late Fall day out there. #pawx #ohwx #wvwx

A gradual warming trend starts today with temperatures reaching the lower 60s (which is still 10F below normal). Temperatures are not expected to return to normal until next weekend. Cooler options are blue, and warmer possibilities red in graphic.

Probabilities for high temperatures of at least 70 degrees climb across the region on Memorial Day. Partly sunny skies and light winds will yield a wonderful day to get out and about especially after several days of cooler temperatures and clouds.

A Frost Advisory is in effect for Eastern Tucker County, WV Sunday morning from 1 AM-9 AM. There is also the potential for patchy frost to occur in colder valley locations away from rivers, mainly south of I-70. Take action, if needed to protect sensitive vegetation.

Did the sunset tonight feel pretty late? Tonight's sunset (May 24th: 8:38pm) is just about a month away from our latest sunset of the year at 8:54pm. So good news, you still have an extra 16 minutes to look forward to.

We're starting to see some valley fog fill in to main-stem river valleys (faint light cyan color on satellite) . Slow down and allow a little extra time if on a morning drive. Turn on your low beams an drive slow; visibilities may be worse over area bridges.

We'll be a couple degrees below normal this year in comparison to average highs for past Memorial Days, though we've certainly had some hot afternoons and some cold mornings.
