Discussion:
Ongoing showers north of I-40 with more patchy dense fog to start the day. A pocket of upper level energy will spark more afternoon storms today. Heavy rain and slow moving storms could lead to a localized flooding threat west of I-77 where we have seen more soaking rain over the last few days. Temperatures will be warmer today with highs back in the upper 70s and lows staying in the mid 60s. More widespread rain and a few rumbles overnight into early Saturday. Highs will reach the low to mid 80s ahead of a cold front. Last shot at scattered storms Saturday evening before drier and cooler air arrives Sunday. Clouds will gradually clear Sunday with humidity level noticeably more comfortable as high pressure fills in. Highs will reach the mid 70s with lows falling into the 40s and 50s. Warming up by midweek as high pressure shifts off the coast leading to highs in the mid to upper 80s. We’ll be watching mid to late week for the potential of more unsettled weather.
