2012 NASCAR Dover Race Day Weather Forecast

Race day weather forecast for the NASCAR Sprint Cup race at Dover International Speedway is mostly dry and partly sunny. There is just the slightest risk of an isolated pop-up shower or thunderstorm during the afternoon. If there is any activity, it will be more miss than hit

Expect a mix of sunshine and clouds for the afternoon as temperatures reach the upper 70s to near 80 degrees. There will be a stiff breeze out of the west between ten to twenty miles per hour.

If any showers or storms do pop up, I will keep you updated on their potential threat.
