Windy and warm weekend, ending with storms

Gusty south winds keep weekend afternoons in the 70s

Wind damage possible in squalls and storms Sunday
Low clouds advance again Friday across the Fredericksburg region as chilly air moves westward from the Chesapeake and Potomac.
Wind shifts for the weekend, consistently from the south, bringing a warmer weekend and finishing with several hours of rain and gustier strong squalls or thunderstorms.
Once the system clears late Sunday night, no rain is expected until at least Thursday next week, and the absence of any seriously cold air means no nighttime freeze for at least the next two weeks.
Normal temperatures next week:
-
Highs: Upper 50s
-
Lows: Low-Mid 30s
