Fire Weather Planning Forecast National Weather Service Charleston WV 935 PM EDT Sun Jul 6 2025 .DISCUSSION... After another very warm evening, and warm and muggy overnight, the new work week will bring a return to unsettled weather, but with little relief from the heat. High pressure that dominated the Holiday weekend will give way to a slow, wavy front that will wobble around but remain mostly north of the area all week. Monday will still be hot, and a bit more humid, with the chance for showers and thunderstorms returning in the afternoon, as the front makes its initial approach. Lowland heat indices could get up into the lower to mid 100s, especially in urban spots, before the thunderstorms form. Showers and thunderstorms, mainly but not exclusively during the afternoon and evening hours, will remain a possibility throughout the week. The clouds and shower and thunderstorm activity will result in slightly lower high temperatures during the week after Monday, but it will remain humid, and nights will remain warm and muggy. Thunderstorms could bring heavy downpours, which could lead to localized flooding, especially over the middle Ohio Valley on Monday, but then most anywhere on Tuesday, and then mainly over the central Appalachians, but with increasing uncertainty, after that.
