Warm, bright and breezy Tuesday

RALEIGH, N.C. (WTVD) -- First Alert Forecast: Dry conditions are expected today, but rain and storms return Wednesday night into Thursday.

Get ready for another warm afternoon with highs in the low to mid 80s. It will be breezy at times today, with wind gusts of 20 to 25mph.

Wednesday will be mostly cloudy, but still warm and breezy. A few showers are possible during the day, but rain chances will be much higher after sunset.

Scattered showers and storms move in Wednesday overnight into Thursday. Rainfall amounts could range from .50" - 1.0" with locally heavier amounts in thunderstorms.

Clouds could be stubborn to clear on Friday, and it will be cooler with highs near 70 degrees.

Cloud cover increases again on Saturday, but it's looking dry for now. Our Thursday front could stall to our south, and moisture riding along that front could reach the Carolinas. This is something to watch as we have a lot of college graduations that day.

Mother's Day will be warm in the low 80s and partly sunny.

Have a great day!
