VIDEO FORECAST

WEATHER DISCUSSION: We are enjoying more pleasant weather on this Thursday afternoon in the Cape Fear with temps in the upper 60s to around 70 under a mix of higher-level cloudiness and sunshine. A cold front has shifted well south of the region but will return northward and through the area by Friday morning as a warm front bringing back the unseasonable warmth. Look for variable cloudiness tonight with areas of fog developing and a comfortable low in the lower 50s. Friday will be warmer with partial sunshine once any fog burns off. Highs will reach the mid 70s. A stronger cold front moves into the western Carolinas Saturday bringing with it a slight chance of a shower locally with continued warm highs in the mid 70s. As the front marches through late Saturday night into early Sunday morning… a slightly better chance of showers moves in. Behind this front Sunday… it will turn a little cooler with clouds giving way to clearing skies by afternoon. Isolated showers remain possible in the morning near the front with highs in the mid to upper 60s. Early next week… strong high pressure builds into the deep south with cold weather expected. Look for mostly sunny skies Monday with lows in the lower 30s and highs struggling to reach around or a little over 50. Next Tuesday brings sunshine and clouds with a low near freezing and chilly highs in the upper 50s. By next Wednesday… slow moderation in temps arrives with increasing moisture leading to a slight chance of showers. Near to slightly above seasonable norms are expected with a high around 60. Rainfall amounts will be stingy again across the region… with no more than .1 or .2 inch of rain over the next 7 days.
