SUMMARY: Chief meteorologist Chad Merill discusses weather patterns for the upcoming week. He explains that recent rain, which contained ash from wildfires in Texas, has affected areas like West Virginia, with potential for more ash if winds continue from the Southwest. However, tomorrow’s rain will not carry ash due to the influence of a cold front. The forecast predicts temperatures around 45°F today, dropping to 35°F tonight. Snow will follow the rain, but travel impacts will be minimal. A warm-up is expected, with highs reaching the 50s and 60s by next week, and a chance of rain and thunderstorms for St. Patrick’s Day weekend.
