Mild Again Saturday; Wet/Cool Sunday

Moderation was the operative word for the forecast today, and this will lead us into a pleasantly mild Saturday around western North Carolina with a good deal of sunshine. Rain moves in for what looks to be a rather soggy Sunday around the region. Temperatures on Sunday will be chilly as well. Unsettled weather will linger into early next week.

Forecast Discussion

Clouds increase tonight for a brief time, although Saturday should have ample sunshine. Temperatures will be quite pleasant. Clouds will be on the increase once again Saturday night, with some rain pushing in around or prior to sunrise.

Changes commence for the second half of the weekend as low-pressure gets going over the central Gulf Coast region, reaching the Eastern Seaboard later Monday. Rain will overspread the region early Sunday, continuing into at least a portion of Monday. The mild weather will be gone, with the clouds and rain creating a chilly conclusion to the weekend and start to the workweek.

Drier weather will be with us for Tuesday, although clouds return for midweek, along with a chance for light rain or drizzle ahead of our next scheduled frontal passage by early Thursday.
