The gorgeous weather sticks around Friday too, with sunny skies once again and afternoon highs climbing into the upper 70s.
Rain chances stay low, but weβll keep an eye on it heading into the night. Once that system moves out, the weather turns quiet again and stays that way through the end of the week.
Good Tuesday morning! Weβre waking up to a much cooler start across the region after temperatures dropped well down into the 40s overnight in some spots. Itβs definitely going to feel a little more refreshing stepping out the door early today.
Today looks like the wettest day of the week as a cold front pushes through the area. Expect a mix of scattered showers and maybe even a couple pop-up thunderstorms during the late morning into the afternoon, especially in the mountains where the rain chances are highest.
As we head into the weekend, the weather stays fairlyΒ goodΒ overall, although we will start to introduce a few rain chances back into the forecast.
By Friday morning, there could still be a stray sprinkle around, but skies will quickly clear out.
The main storm systemΒ with rain and storms moves into our region late tonight. Expect scattered showers and thunderstorms to develop after 8 p.m. and continue on and off through the overnight hours.
Tuesday is shaping up to feel much more like early summer around the Carolinas. Weβll wake up to plenty of sunshine and a warmer start to the day, with afternoon temperatures quickly climbing into the low 80s.
Monday morning is going to feel pretty cool again, with lows in the midΒ to upperΒ 40s across theΒ region.Β It willΒ warm up nicely by the afternoon, with highs climbing close to 80 degrees. Weβll have plenty of sunshine, and that bright, warm pattern sticks around into Tuesday, when temperatures inch up a few more degrees.
Saturday, expect rain starting very early into the afternoon. Temperatures will struggle to get out of the upper 50s to near 60 degrees, and with a cool northeast breeze, itβs going to feel even chillier.
