FORECAST:

• The weather pattern has certainly changed.
• We are now into a pattern featuring scattered showers and thunderstorms threatening pretty much every day from this weekend right through most of next week
• Although showers and storms will be scattered in nature, over several days rain totals will add up, which is a good thing.
• The threat for any severe storms, at least for the time being is very low primarily because, for now, we remain in a cool northeast wind flow.
• This wedge will slowly start breaking Sunday so it should be a little warmer and we should warm back up into the 80s for much of next week.
• This weather pattern will likely continue to effect racing at the Charlotte Motor Speedway.
• Scattered showers MAY diminish enough to get the 9 p.m. race going tonight, but that’s questionable.
• Same thing with the Coca Cola 600 Sunday evening, although there MAY be somewhat of a better chance at that than tonight’s race.
