NASCAR Weather Forecast Discussion
Throughout the weekend, the region is forecast to be downstream of a robust upper-level ridge. This should lead to calm skies throughout the weekend. The only point of concern is Sunday. Earlier in the week, a cold front is forecasted to move into Florida and over the Atlantic, however, a surface low-pressure system positioned over the Southern Plains could push this front further North. Most model guidance suggests that this front will remain in Georgia and South Carolina on Sunday, but further progression East or North could move that front into the Charlotte region. As of now though, there’s no chance for rain on Sunday.
We will continue to update the forecast throughout the week!
