Friday looks to be a nice but cool day at Canadian Tire Motorsports Park for the 1st day of Pirelli World Challenge on-track activity. Temperatures will start off in the lower 50 in the early morning and will only warm into the lower 60s by the afternoon high. Skies will be mostly sunny throughout the day, but winds could be gusty at times out of the east averaging 15-20 MPH with gusts up to 25 MPH possible.
Saturday will start off with showers moving through the area and will last until the beginning of the afternoon, then becoming more scattered in nature afterwords. Afternoon highs will top out in the upper 50s after starting off just a little lower in the lower 50s. Chance of rain will be 80% during the morning hours and dropping into the 30% range for the remainder of the afternoon hours. Winds will be breezy once again out of the east at 10-15 MPH and gusts above 20 MPH possible.
Sunday will feature partly cloudy skies and a very small chance of a passing shower during the late afternoon to the early evening hours, just right around the end of the on-track activity. Good news is rain chance will only be around 20%, and the latest NAM forecast model shows rain holding off until after sunset. Afternoon high will top out in the lower 60s, and winds will be out of the southwest at 10-15 MPH.
