Partly sunny skies with some cloud cover as the next storm system approaches our area. Very warm air still in place, ahead of his front that will push our temperatures up into the upper 80s. Winds out of the SSE will be gusting in the low 20 mph range. There is a slight chance for a pop-up shower or thunderstorm this afternoon, not much rain expected. Could see some lightning though. Still a pretty nice day! For tonight, partly cloudy skies, with evening temperature still in the upper 80s and SSE winds still very breezy. There is still a slight chance for a pop-up shower or thunderstorm with not much rain expected. Our overnight temperature will be around 70°. Severe weather with some heavy rain, large hail, damaging winds and possible tornadoes are still on track for Monday into Tuesday night.

Long-Range Comment: Saturday May 18, 2013 am
My long-range forecast for the upcoming week. Showers and thunderstorms start to develop Sunday, May 19. Several days of severe thunderstorms are likely, starting Sunday night through Wednesday morning. We could see heavy rain with large hail, damaging winds and possible tornadoes in the area. Total precipitation of 1.50 inches possible through this time frame. Very pleasant weather expected for Staunton's graduation, with temperatures in the low 70s, and at graduation time in the mid 60s under partly cloudy skies. A very slight chance for a spot shower in the area. Memorial weekend looks very nice, then we begin to get hot by the latter half of that weekend.
