.DISCUSSION...
Unseasonably warm weather continues the rest of the week, with
temperatures feeling more like April than February. Highs today
through Friday will be in the 60s across the lower elevations. It
will get breezy, even windy today as the chance for rain showers
returns, the rain showers most likely in northern West Virginia, due
a system whisking by to the north of the area.
A stronger system is more likely to bring rain showers, even a
thunderstorm or two, Thursday through Thursday night, followed by
colder and possibly unsettled weather for the weekend, and into the
next work weed.
