You may think Spring has sprung…but not yet

Occasional showers will produce 1-3" of rain in the forecast for most communities through Saturday night

We will trade our cold weather in for warmer temperatures and pay for it with showers!

Occasional showers will produce 1-3″ of rain in the forecast for most communities through Saturday night.

A wet weather system in the Midwest is moving our way and ahead of it we will continue to see warmer than normal temperatures.  Strangely, our temperatures will likely go up instead of down overnight!  By midnight, we should be close to 60.  Another pulse of showers and storms pushes into the Carolinas by Thursday morning, which could cause some problems for your commute.

Shower chances have fallen a bit for our Friday, but most areas should expect at least a few drops as we close out the workweek. We’ll need to closely monitor a second storm system sliding into our area by Saturday. The severe threat doesn’t look particularly high right now, but it has the same general mechanics as the damaging storms that rocked the Carolinas just two weeks ago. Most communities in the WCCB Charlotte viewing area can expect 1-3″ of rain through Saturday night before drier air filters in by Sunday. The week between January and February will start on a dry note with near-normal temperatures.

Tonight: Overcast. Isolated shower NW. Low: 58°. Wind: SE 5-10.

Thursday Night: Remaining cloudy with a few showers. Low: 64°. Wind: SW 5-15.
