Before the first race…

We expect a dry morning. As you’re making the final outfit decisions, know that rain is in the conversation, and the best option is to have a couple options. The rain we had yesterday evening and overnight is gone, but it has left the ground quite soft. After thousands of people and hundreds of vehicles make their way around the infield, it’s going to get muddy. That being said, you won’t need rain jackets as you set up your tailgate spot or unpack linens in your box. We expect a high of 74º at 4pm. read more

This afternoon and tonight

Scattered showers dominate the area throughout the day, some being heavy at times. Believe it or not our high temp was 61º and midnight. By sunrise we had already fallen to a temp of 51º and we’re going to keep getting cooler all day. read more

Sunday Night/Wee Hours Monday

The High Resolution Rapid Refresh model below gives us some art. You can see that it’s pretty hot, and most runs are just like this.

Rest of Monday

Rounds of non-severe showers and possibly storms continue most of the day. A couple HRRR runs throw some stronger storms into both counties around 4pm. Not totally sold on that right now. read more

Saturday Re-Cap

Last night we saw several strong and severe storms move through the area. One could have contained a Tornado. There is a report of damage happening near Highway 396 (Saturn Parkway) in Spring Hill, and we’ll wait to see if NWS sends a crew out to survey it, and if so what damage they see. read more

Today

Lots of sun and no humidity. A really enjoyable day. Take a look at the temp wind and sky cover grid below.

What you also might notice is that sky cover creeps up overnight into Sunday morning. That sets the tone for the first part of the week ahead. read more

TODAY:

As my friend and favorite pub owner Jeremy Palmer would say, “it’s a BEWT”. Nothing but Sun and a high of 57º. Below the HRRR simulates what the IR Satellite will look like through tomorrow morning. read more

Today:

Happy Friday!! After storms threatened us yesterday, the weather story for this week is a return of the sun. Clouds will move across our area today keeping the sun by and large hidden. The temp this afternoon with get up to around 55º and wind will keep gusting to around 20mph. High pressure will be working its way in from the west and that will make the next 4-5 days nearly cloud free. read more

Rain, maybe a flake or two late tonight.

Tomorrow, cold, but warming through the week.
