Warmer & Few Showers Today, Severe Risk Sunday

RALEIGH, N.C. (WTVD) -- Good morning,

Much warmer today despite the cloud cover and passing light showers. Most of the light rain will be north and west of the Triangle today, but don't be surprised if you need the windshield wipers briefly today.

Still cloudy and warm tonight with the overnight low nearly 30 degrees warmer than average!

Warm and windy tomorrow with afternoon showers and storms arriving. There is a level 2 risk of severe weather with the main threat damaging winds but and isolated tornado is also possible. Timing is still in question but for now looking like 1pm in our western counties and leaving our eastern counties around 7pm.

Bright and still mild for Monday, then a chance for afternoon showers on New Year's Eve. That chance continues into the evening although only at 30% then bright and breezy Thursday and Friday with colder air moving in again.

Have a great day!
