Chief Meteorologist Patrick Rockey’s First Warning Forecast
Following an afternoon of mean storms, we're expecting things to calm down and cool down over the next few days.
Most of the storms should push off the North Carolina coast by late evening and then the milder weather will arrive behind a cold front.
While it still will be on the humid side, we will enjoy high temperatures in the mid-to-upper 80s on Wednesday and Thursday versus the mid-to-upper 90s that we’ve been dealing with the past few days.
With that front, lingering nearby, a few showers and thunderstorms are still possible on Wednesday and Thursday.
A separate cold front will push into the region just in time for the weekend.
While it will be hot again on Friday, with high temperatures near 90, humidity levels will start to drop.
That will lay the groundwork for some pretty great weekend weather, especially Saturday.
We are expecting high temperatures only in the low-to-mid 80s for the first half of the weekend. And we will enjoy plenty of sunshine.
The sunshine sticks around for Sunday, but temperatures will be climbing back into the mid-to-upper 80s.
And the sunny and dry weather will stick around for the start of the work week. Stay tuned.
