Dry Week Ahead

RALEIGH, N.C. (WTVD) -- The line of showers continues to move across the region, with very limited instability a rumble ofthunder seems more unlikely. As these showers continues to advance eastward offshore this evening, there will be some clearing that occurs for a period of time tonight behind the front leading to some breaks in the clouds resulting in partly cloudy skies.

Tomorrow partly sunny skies move in along with an increase in a modest SW surface flow by the afternoon that should allow the region to climb into the low to middle 70s by the afternoon. A brief area of high pressure will be moved offshore by Tuesday afternoon as a surface low will develop and pass along the east coast near the NC/VA borders Tuesday evening. Modeling has some discrepancy in the exact placement of this weak surface low but has trended further south bringing a chance of a shower or two around the viewing area Tuesday night.

Wednesday is cooler with highs in the middle 60s around the Triangle with dry weather expected. High pressure looks to setup over the region into the weekend and promote temperatures to climb into the middle and upper 70s by the weekend. We continue to monitor the potential for a more significant system working its way across the center of the nation this upcoming weekend that will bring the next chance for showers and thunderstorms early next week.

Have a great evening!
