Tonight we will see mostly clear skies and it’s another chilly night in store as lows dip back into the middle 40s. The haze as a result of the wildfire smoke coming from Canada will continue, though now as thick as earlier this week.

Friday will be partly cloudy for most with high pressure in control. More haze can be expected. A weak trough extending from an area of low pressure over the West Virginia mountains will allow for the chance for a couple of mountain showers. Otherwise, we’re dry with high temperatures remaining below normal around 70 degrees. We will still see some haze but that will begin to improve Saturday!

Saturday continues the beautiful conditions. We’ll see plenty of sunshine – hardly a cloud in the sky! Highs will be in the middle 70s and the haze slowly begin to improve a bit, as our wind begins to shift to coming from the south as high pressure takes control.

Sunday brings in the chances for a couple of isolated storms late in the day with an area of low pressure and subsequent front approaching. Scattered showers and a few rumblers are possible during the overnight, but at this point, most of the day looks dry. It will be a warm day, as we’ll make a run into the lower 80s. Better chances for showers and storms overnight will continue into Monday.

Monday keeps the showers around with a front crossing from the west. Expect showers at times with an area of low pressure trekking across the Great Lakes. High temperatures will be cooler in the lower to middle 70s with the clouds and showers around.

Tuesday looks nice at this point, with plenty of sunshine expected and high temperatures in the lower 70s.

Looking ahead, temperatures are trending back to a bit on the warmer side after a cool remainder to the work week. High temperatures back to near 80 degrees look to be a good bet for much of next week. Our average high is 75 degrees in Beckley and 74 degrees in Bluefield and there look to be more days that will feature highs above average than below.
