A taste of Autumn arrives this week

RALEIGH, N.C. (WTVD) -- Cloudy skies and a few lingering showers will start the day, but the rain will gradually lift to the northeast.

Most of Sunday looks hot, humid, and dry, although an isolated afternoon shower can't be completely ruled out, especially east of I-95.

Monday will bring another hot and humid day as a dry cold front moves across North Carolina. Humidity levels will begin to drop late in the day, and by Tuesday morning, dew points could fall into the upper 40s and low 50s! That will make for a refreshingly cool, autumn-like start to Tuesday.

The lower humidity is expected to stick around through Thursday before more moisture returns late Friday. An isolated shower or thunderstorm will be possible next Saturday.

Have a great day!
