night and mild temperatures in the mid
50s. After a mild start to Friday,
highs climb to the lower 80s Friday
afternoon with mostly sunny skies.
While Friday will be dry, we'll be
watching a cold front in the
Mississippi River Valley that will
attempt to bring us showers over the
weekend. Friday night skies will be
partly cloudy with lows in the mid and
upper 50s. For the most part, Saturday
looks partly sunny, with only a chance
of an isolated shower in the afternoon.
Highs are slated near 80. There's a
better chance of scattered showers
Saturday night with lows in the mid
50s. The front will be sluggish moving
east, so Sunday looks mostly cloudy
with scattered showers - not an all day
rain, however. Afternoon highs should
manage the mid 70s. Next week, we have
variably cloudy conditions forecast


Monday through Wednesday with a 20%
chance of showers each day. Right now,
highs look to be around 70 with lows in
the upper 40s. REST OF THE DAY: Mostly
sunny. Warm breezes. High: 78 THURSDAY
NIGHT: Mainly clear. Low: 56 FRIDAY:

(END SOT) JAY SU: The hotdogs are good and the


temperatures are warming up - it's time
to take in some baseball.


++++++++++


Average highs warm into 70s this month,
and most people consider this a pretty
comfortable time of the year before
summer's heat. Overnight lows drop into
the mid 40s in Blacksburg, and in the
lower 50s elsewhere.


++++++++++


JAY SU: Let's hope the tarps don't have


to cover the field very often - but May
can be wet. It's usually Roanoke and
Blacksburg's wettest month of the year!


++++++++++


During an average May, most local rain
gauges measure over 4-inches of
moisture. And lately the rain has been
plentiful!


++++++++++


JAY SU: May's full moon is the called
the Flower Moon. It's on the 19th and
10:11pm.


++++++++++


On May 3rd, look for the thin crescent
moon in the low western twilight. To
its left is the planet Mercury. Mars
forms a straight line with other bright
stars on May 6th. For more sky
happenings, visit our weather page at

JAY SU: Finally, don't strike out!
Remember mother's day is May 11th! Have
a great month, I'm SkyTracker7
