Phoenix International Raceway Race Day Weather Forecast: Sprint Cup Will Race Today

Forecast Discussion:

My overall though of all shower activity ending mid to late morning seems to be on track. As of 9am ET (7am MT) the bulk of the precipitation was east of the track. There could be a few isolated sprinkles or drizzle until 1pm ET (11am MT). From then going into the start of the race, skies will slowly begin to clear, and we could get some sunshine as the race wears on. I feel like we are most likely dry to start the race, not ruling out a pesky drizzle or isolated shower but if there is any delay it will be short and this race will get in today.

1:00 p.m MST (3:00 p.m EST)
Sprint Cup Race Start – Mostly cloudy, cooler, poss. isolated drizzle or shower, mostly dry - temp: 51
2:30 p.m MST (4:30 p.m EST)
