Classic summertime setup ahead
While a few heavy storms will pop up in the afternoons ahead, most communities remain dry through the majority of the weekend.
We’ve finally made it to Friday – and there’s some light at the end of the stormy tunnel we’ve been trekking through since midweek. A much more stable airmass is settling in this weekend, allowing for sunny skies and toasty highs across much of the Carolinas. While a few heavy storms may pop up between now and Sunday, most communities will remain dry through the majority of the weekend ahead. Highs will top out in the mid-to-lower 90s across the Piedmont and Foothills over the next five days while the High Country enjoys afternoon temperatures closer to 80°.
A more unsettled pattern returns by the start of the workweek as a frontal system skirts by the Carolinas to the north. Overall, don’t expect much change over the next week – the dog days of summer are here. The tropics remain quiet, as well.
