A stalled out cold front centered near the mountains is keeping our weather active for the first part of the week in central North Carolina. The boundary will allow tropical moisture flowing from the southwest to the northeast to settle on top of our area. This moisture will keep rain chances in the forecast through at least Thursday, and while we’re not expecting a washout any day, Tuesday will have the most coverage of any day this week. The increase in clouds will also keep temperatures cooler in the low 80s.

By Thursday and into the end of the week a strong high pressure typically centered over Bermuda will move west and push the boundary over the mountains away. This means rain chances will become more scattered, typical of our summertime pattern. Highs will also slowly climb back into the upper 80s and low 90s, with that mix of sunshine and afternoon thunderstorms expected each day.
FORECAST
OVERNIGHT will be mostly cloudy with a spotty shower. The low will be 72. Winds will be out of the south at 10 miles per hour.
TUESDAY will be mostly cloudy with rain and storms. The high will be 82. Winds will be out of the east at 5 miles per hour.
