Rain is about to be the trick on Halloween
If you haven't gotten in your Halloween activities yet, you're probably going to get soaked if it involves being outdoors the rest of this evening. A large area of rain moving out of West Virginia will soon overtake the area. While we saw some showers earlier, this will be a much more widespread and heavier rain ... though not a torrential one. Most places in our region are expected to get 1/2 to 1 inch. Once this rain pushes out, the week ahead looks like a treat, with dry weather, cool mornings and warm days. A prolonged period of mild to warm and dry weather may be in the offing the next 10 days or so ... but last week's projected dryness was spoiled by a storm that fired in the Gulf. We'll just have to see if there are any spoiler this week.

Didn't miss this one, actually ... this was filed at 9:16 p.m. and most of the rest of the night was a soaker! In fact, it was wetter than expected, with 1.23 inches of rain overnight and this morning at Roanoke.
But thanks for the kind words.
