Here is the forecast for the hot racing action for the TC classes of the Pirelli World Challenge series and the Trans Am series at Mid-Ohio Sports Car Course this weekend.
THURSDAY
Looks like an overall nice day is in store. Skies will be mostly sunny and temperatures will be cool for summertime. Highs will reach the upper 70s. Winds will be out of the west at 5-10 MPH. Chance of rain is 0%.
FRIDAY
Skies will be mostly sunny during most of the day and temperatures will be a little warmer. A dissipating cold front will move into the area sometime during the later part of the day, causing an increase in a chance of isolated showers and thunderstorms. Highs will top out in the lower to middle 80s. Winds will be from the west at 5-10 MPH. Chance of rain is only 20%.
SATURDAY
The cold front looks like it will stall out somewhere in central Ohio, which will keep a chance of isolated showers and thunderstorms in the forecast for the first half of the day. A ridge building aloft will calm the convection and keep the afternoon hours dry. Skies will be mostly sunny with a slight chance of an isolated shower or thunderstorm before 1PM. Highs will reach the lower 80s. Winds will be from the northwest at 2-5 MPH. Chance of rain is 20%.
I am in Starkville, Mississippi for a mandatory workshop for college. When I return back home on Wednesday night, I'll have radar set up and up on the site. I'll have updates on my Twitter feed @RaceWx4You and on our Facebook page.
