    A significant cold front is moving through West Virginia today, and Huntington sits squarely in the impact zone. This isn't a light passing shower — it's an organized frontal system stretching from Maine to Texas, bringing a 50% chance of rain showers and scattered afternoon thunderstorms to the Tri-State area.

    The high reaches near 72°F, but heavy cloud cover and gusty west-southwest winds of 10–20 mph will make it feel cooler than that number suggests. The low drops noticeably as the front pushes through, so evening temperatures will feel markedly different from the afternoon peak.

    Timing matters for your schedule. The morning commute may catch light rain, but the heavier storm activity is expected to build through the afternoon — particularly the 3–6 PM window. Wet roads, reduced visibility, and possible wind gusts above 20 mph during storm cells make the afternoon drive the main concern. Build in extra travel time and increase following distance on wet pavement.

    For what to wear: skip the umbrella if gusts pick up — it'll work against you. A waterproof jacket with a light layer underneath is the smarter call. Waterproof footwear is worth considering if you're spending any time outdoors.

    The one uncertainty to watch is afternoon storm intensity. If warm surface air ahead of the front holds longer than expected, storm activity could strengthen. Check conditions again before you head out this afternoon.

    (00:03:16) Closing Watchpoints Tonight

    Huntington WV is under an active wind advisory today, and this episode walks you through everything you need to know before you head out the door. Sustained south winds of 15 to 25 knots are expected throughout the day, with gusts up to 30 knots — and within the strongest storm cells, damaging gusts are possible. The advisory runs until 10 PM tonight.

    Rain probability sits at 80 percent, with storms developing after midday and concentrating through the evening commute. That means reduced visibility, wet roads, and gusty wind all hitting at the same time for drivers heading home. If you have flexibility, getting home before 5 PM gives you a cleaner window.

    Huntington's lowland valley geography is a key factor today. The city's position tends to amplify wind exposure during strong systems, putting trees and power lines at elevated risk. Secure any loose outdoor items — furniture, trash bins, anything that can catch wind — before you leave this morning.

    For what to wear: the high reaches 72 degrees this afternoon, but that warmth disappears fast once rain and wind arrive. A waterproof outer layer is the right call. Leaving it in the car is not good enough today.

    The one uncertainty to track: exact storm arrival after midday isn't pinned down precisely. Early or late afternoon are both possible. Move any outdoor plans to the morning hours and treat the full afternoon and evening as active. Stay near your alerts, check conditions before you drive, and give yourself more time than you think you need.
