Wednesday will be warm with highs in the low 90s under mostly sunny skies. A cold front will approach the area Thursday with the chance for scattered storms during the afternoon and evening, highs in the low 90s. The front will clear the region late Thursday night with gradually clearing skies. Friday through Labor Day look beautiful with highs in the mid 80s and overnight lows in the low to mid 60s.

*We continue to monitor a storm in the Gulf of Mexico. This will likely become a Tropical storm over the next day and will make landfall on the northwest side of Florida as it moves northeast. This storm will have no impact on Charlotte, but areas along the southeast coast will have some rain and breezy conditions late in the week. The worst of the storm will remain off of the coast. Rip currents will be the biggest concern.*

Wednesday: Hot and humid, isolated storm north and west of Charlotte. High 91°. Light wind.

Wednesday Night: Scattered clouds, mild and muggy. Low 70°. Light wind.

Thursday: Hot and muggy, scattered storms possible. High 92°. Light wind.
