NASCAR at Talladega Superspeedway 2014: A rain free weekend

All season long it has felt like rain has been a problem NASCAR could just not avoid. There have been only three entirely rain free weekends this season (Las Vegas Motor Speedway, Auto Club Speedway and Darlington Raceway) now we can add a fourth weekend to that list, Talladega Superspeedway.

Lots of dry air is in place for this weekend across central Alabama. Afternoon temperatures will be in the low 70s today and warming into the mid to upper 70s by Saturday. Skies will be mostly sunny both today and Saturday and that continues into Sunday for the Sprint Cup race. It will be warmer by the end of the weekend with afternoon temperatures getting into the low to mid 80s.

This will be an ever changing weather forecast so follow me on Twitter @NASCAR_WXMAN and like me on Facebook for the latest weather updates.
