Humidity will also be higher Sunday, and there’s the chance for a stray shower or storm with highs in the middle 90s, but most places will remain dry again. That’s not the case on Monday with an approaching cold front and plenty of “juice” for storms, with highs in the middle to upper 90s. 

The Storm Prediction Center has central North Carolina in a Marginal Risk (level 1) and Slight Risk (level 2) for severe weather, mainly later in the day Monday. Once the front passes, we’ll see a few degrees drop in temperatures Tuesday, but we’ll remain in the 90s for most of the week. Next week is the first full week of summer as the summer solstice arrives early Sunday morning. 

Rain chances stay relatively low most of next week, with most days having a 20% chance of rain. 

FORECAST

SUNDAY will be mostly sunny and hotter. The high will be 94. Winds will be southwest at 5 miles per hour.
