An approaching cold front sparks showers and maybe a rumble of thunder through the evening hours. The Cape Fear zone towards the coast has a low-end severe weather risk for damaging winds, but no severe storms are expected locally.
Behind the front, sunshine returns for Tuesday. But it will still be cool with highs in the lower 70s.
Another round of rain arrives late Wednesday into very early Thursday before a major warming trend unfolds.
Highs by next weekend into the following week will be nearing 90 degrees as dry high pressure builds in.
