Ukrop's Monument Ave 10K Forecast

Detailed forecast for the 10th Annual Ukrop’s Monument Avenue 10K:

Two waves of moderate to heavy rain will affect the Richmond Metro area this weekend, and it appears as though the big race Saturday morning will get started just as the first wave of rain is winding down. I do not expect a threat of lightning in the area during the race. Rain will increase in coverage and intensity Friday evening through the overnight hours, and should be moving east of the area around sunrise. Much of Saturday should be dry, with the next wave of rain moving in Saturday evening and continuing into Sunday. Here’s the updated race day forecast from the CBS 6 Storm Center:

7 AM: Cloudy and cool with a 60% chance of rain. Temp: 49
8 AM: Cloudy and cool with a 60% chance of rain. Temp: 50
9AM: Cloudy and cool with a 40% chance of rain. Temp: 51
