FNUS51 KRNK 271745 FWFRNK Fire Weather Planning Forecast for SW VA...SE WV and NW NC National Weather Service Blacksburg VA 145 PM EDT Sat Sep 27 2025 .DISCUSSION... Surface high pressure will work its way into the region overnight, which will lead to a relatively dry and quiet Sunday across the region. By Monday morning, mid level remnants from the current cut-off trough over the area look to start interacting with moisture from current TD9. This will likely bring periodic waves of isentropically forced showers to most areas south of I-64 due to surface high pressure north of the region over New York. Period bouts of light to moderate rainfall for areas primarily south of I-64 looks possible through Wednesday as moisture is pulled north from future Imelda. With moisture expected to be moving into the area through the middle of next week, expect a reduced fire weather concern areawide.
