SUMMARY: Storm Watch meteorologist Christian Butler reports a mild start with temperatures in Bluefield reaching the mid-70s before cooling overnight. Currently, some fog affects Greenbryer, Nicholas, and Monroe counties, urging cautious driving. A stationary front over Florida will bring moisture northward, causing showers and storms starting tomorrow. High pressure today limits rain, but it retreats by Wednesday, the week’s rainiest day. Showers continue scattered through the weekend, with Saturday slightly clearer. Temperatures will remain above average for the next 6 to 10 days across the central and eastern U.S., paired with increased precipitation. Expect a mix of showers and storms through the extended forecast.
