Forecast Discussion

Behind the front, cooler air will be arriving overnight and for Saturday as a cold upper level low-pressure system aloft lumbers by just to our north. Lingering scattered showers will be possible tonight through Saturday in association with this feature. (As a sidebar item, it will be cold enough over the highest peaks of the NC Mountains for some wet snow later tonight and Saturday.)

After some morning cloudiness, Easter should turn out nice as sunshine returns for the afternoon and temperatures moderate nicely.

With high pressure in control, Monday and Tuesday will be mostly sunny and warm. A weak cold front passing through during midweek could generate a shower or two by Wednesday afternoon or evening, but it shouldn’t amount to a whole lot.
