There’s just a slight chance of a hit or miss shower today for Dover International Speedway and the NASCAR Sprint Cup race. Although showers remain in the forecast, there is more dry time than wet.
NASCAR At Dover 2012 Race Day Weather Forecast: Slight Chance Of Scattered Showers
A storm system remains stalled over the Great Lakes keeping the atmosphere over the Mid-Atlantic slightly unstable. A cool pool of air will settle over the region this afternoon. Combine that with some afternoon sunshine and a scattered to isolated shower is possible during the afternoon.
This activity will be more miss than hit but it only takes one well placed light rain shower to cause a minor delay or even a red flag. Although a stray shower is possible it seems unlikely we will have to much of a weather problem today.
FORECAST TODAY: Partly sunny skies, cool westerly wind between 3 and 8 miles per hour, with an isolated to scattered shower in the afternoon. Expect most of the day and afternoon to remain dry. Afternoon temperatures near 70.
