Derrah Getter's First Warning Forecast
A coastal low will be moving along the east coast causing widespread rain chances. We're monitoring this system for potential tropical development.
Sunday will feature brighter skies. It will be humid but the breezy conditions will help make it feel more comfortable. Highs will make a run for the low 80s. There will be the chance for a few isolated showers mainly for portions of northeast North Carolina.
Starting Monday, scattered showers and storms move in. The elevated rain chances stick around all weak long. Models are coming into better agreement as to how much rain we'll see. You can expect up to 3 inches with most spots racking up 2 inches.
Highs during this next stretch will be in the upper 70s and low 80s. It will be pretty muggy but the cloud cover and breezy conditions will help ease conditions and make it feel more mild.
