Rain Chances Monday. Hottest Temps of Year Later This Week.

A fairly weak cold front scoots across the area Monday giving us a chance for rain. It starts in the mountains and then moves across Charlotte during the afternoon commute and shortly after. We won’t see much rain, at most a quarter of an inch. Temps drop into the 70s on Tuesday with a few lingering showers possible early. The skies clear Wednesday, and the temperatures start to heat up. We’ll get the hottest highs of the year so far Thursday through Sunday with Friday nearly touching 90.

Monday: Showers and thunderstorms possible in the afternoon. High 80°.

Monday Night: Partly cloudy. Low 57°.

Tuesday: Early showers possible. High 77°.

Tuesday Night:  Partly cloudy: Low 58°.
