Warm Wednesday with a few storms popping up late day (2025)

WITH ANY SHOWERS, BUT HOPEFULLY WE’LL BE RAIN FREE. I KNOW IT’S ALWAYS DIFFICULT IN MAY, RIGHT? IT IS SPRING. YEAH. YEAH, IT FEELS A LITTLE BIT MORE LIKE SUMMER, THOUGH, AS WE’RE TRANSITIONING TO HIGHS IN THE 80S TODAY. YEAH, WE WERE 80 TODAY. MID 80S. IT LOOKS LIKE AS WE HEAD INTO TOMORROW AND THE NEXT DAY WE DID HAVE SOME SUNSHINE TODAY WITH JUST A FEW PASSING CLOUDS OVERHEAD. THOSE CLOUDS NOT PRODUCING ANY RAIN. SO DRY CONDITIONS. THERE IS A VIEW OVER WINSTON-SALEM. BIT OF A BREEZE OUT THERE TODAY, WHICH IS REALLY HELPFUL BECAUSE THAT HELPED IT FEEL JUST A TOUCH COOLER THAN THAT 80 DEGREES. NOW, AS WE MOVE FORWARD, WE’RE GOING TO STAY HOT. TEMPS WILL BE IN THE 80S. WE’VE GOT ISOLATED STORM CHANCES BEGINNING TOMORROW AFTERNOON. ALSO THURSDAY AFTERNOON, BETTER RAIN AND STORM CHANCES. IT LOOKS LIKE RIGHT NOW IN THAT FRIDAY SATURDAY TIME FRAME. AND RIGHT NOW IT LOOKS LIKE WE COULD DRY OUT IN TIME TO SALVAGE SUNDAY FROM THE WEEKEND. 80 DEGREES WAS THE HIGH OUT THERE TODAY? NORMAL HIGH IS 75. WE’RE STILL WARM. WE’VE GOT TEMPS AROUND 70 IN MARTINSVILLE MID 60S IN NORTH WILKESBORO AS WELL AS ASHEBORO. DEW POINTS ARE UP AS WELL. THEY’RE PRETTY CLOSE TO 60 DEGREES, SO IT IS PRETTY MUGGY OUT THERE. IT’S WARM AND MUGGY FOR EVERYONE THAT IS AHEAD OF A FRONT THAT IS ACTUALLY CREATING SOME SEVERE WEATHER OUT OF THE OHIO VALLEY. ALSO UP THROUGH PARTS OF WEST VIRGINIA INTO PENNSYLVANIA AND OHIO. MOST OF THESE STORM REPORTS HAVE BEEN WIND DAMAGE ASSOCIATED WITH THIS FRONT. THIS SHOULD STAY NORTH AND WEST OF US TONIGHT. WE DO HAVE AN OPPORTUNITY FOR AT LEAST ISOLATED STORMS TOMORROW, BUT RIGHT NOW, NOT IN THAT SEVERE STORM CATEGORY. YOU CAN SEE SOME OF THIS WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE INTO WESTERN VIRGINIA. AND WE’LL LOOK FOR MAYBE A SHOWER TO PUSH INTO OUR AREA BY DAYBREAK. BUT THINGS ARE NICE AND QUIET ACROSS THE REGION RIGHT NOW AS WE PUSH THIS MAP FORWARD, THOUGH, YOU’RE GOING TO SEE AT LEAST A FEW SHOWERS HERE. THIS IS AROUND 5:06 A.M. TOMORROW MORNING. GOOD BIT OF CLOUD COVER AROUND TOMORROW. MAYBE A PASSING SHOWER EARLY, BUT OUR BEST CHANCE FOR ANYTHING TO POP UP WILL LIKELY BE IN THE AFTERNOON. AS YOU CAN SEE, JUST SOME HIT AND MISS SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS FOR THE AFTERNOON AND EVENING HOURS, SO RAIN COVERAGE IS NOT WIDESPREAD. IT’S ONLY ABOUT 30%. HIGH TEMPERATURE UP TO 85 TOMORROW AFTERNOON. SO IT IS HOT AND HUMID. WE’RE INTO THE LOW TO MID 80S IN THE FOOTHILLS AS WELL. ALSO, WITH THAT ISOLATED STORM CHANCE IN THE AFTERNOON AND A FEW SCATTERED STORMS SEEM LIKELY IN THE MOUNTAINS TOO, WITH TEMPERATURES THAT WILL BE IN THE MID TO UPPER 70S. OF COURSE, WE’RE SEEING OUR TREE POLLEN COUNTS COME DOWN A LITTLE BIT AS WE ARE STARTING TO KIND OF TRANSITION OUT OF THE TREE SEASON, SO MAYBE THAT IS HELPFUL TO YOU AS THIS FRONT MOVES IN, WE ARE GOING TO HAVE OPPORTUNITIES FOR RAIN ALONG. IT IS THE SECOND FRONT THAT WILL ACTUALLY GIVE US SOME RELIEF FROM THE 80S THAT WILL BE BUILDING IN HERE OVER THE NEXT SEVERAL DAYS. SO THIS IS A MAP FOR TOMORROW AFTERNOON. YOU CAN SEE THE SPOTTY SHOWER AND STORM COVERAGE NOTICE AS WE HEAD INTO THURSDAY MORNING. WE’RE STILL REALLY WARM ACROSS THE REGION WITH TEMPERATURES IN THE 60S. BY THURSDAY AFTERNOON, WE’VE GOT ALSO A CHANCE FOR A FEW POP UP SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS TRANSITIONING INTO FRIDAY. THAT NEXT FRONT GETS A LITTLE BIT CLOSER BY FRIDAY AFTERNOON. WE’LL SEE AT LEAST A FEW SHOWERS AND STORMS DEVELOP AS WELL. AND LIKE I SAID, WE DO HAVE THAT OPPORTUNITY FOR SOME RAIN INTO FRIDAY NIGHT AND NOW EVEN INTO SATURDAY. WE’RE GOING TO HANG ON TO THAT AS IT MAY SLOW DOWN JUST A BIT. TEMPERATURES SHOULD BE A LITTLE BIT COOLER OVER THE WEEKEND, AND I DO THINK WE’LL SEE DRIER SKIES AND LESS HUMID AIR RETURN HOPEFULLY BY SUNDAY, IF NOT BY THEN. THEN ON MONDAY, C
