Good morning! The cold front has shifted south. Clouds this morning will give way to a mix of sun and clouds this afternoon. It's cooler this morning, with out-the-door temps in the 50s and 60s. Northeasterly winds will keep temperatures cooler than average this afternoon, with highs in the mid/upper 70s.
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.
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 northern parts the country move southward into the area.
Have a good day!
