Feeling like summer by the end of the week

RALEIGH, N.C. (WTVD) -- First Alert Forecast: Drier, cooler air works in through the middle of the week. It will feel like summer, with highs in the 90s, by the end of the week.

Temps will be in the low 70s this evening when the Stanley Cup Final starts, trailing off in the 60s by the end of the game. Lows tonight will range from the upper 40s to low 50s.

High pressure will take hold of much of the eastern United States this week, which will keep conditions dry. This week for RDU features a dry forecast and more heat as a strong ridge of high pressure builds over the eastern half of the county.

These conditions will allow for highs to soar into the 90s by the end of the week and into the weekend.

The next chance for any kind of precipitation looks to hold off until late in the weekend, with a few storms on Sunday into Monday as the front over the western Plains slowly moves in and a weak front over the northern parts of the country moves southward into the area.

Have a great day!
