A Weather Alert Day is set for Monday
A Weather Alert Day is planned for Monday as a combo of heavy and possibly severe storms and heavy rain are in the forecast.
A storm system over the northern Gulf coast is fueling things along with our seabreezes, though the cooler day we had for Mother's Day and Monday will hopefully work to reduce our overall severe threat.
Channel 9's Kassandra Crimi will keep track of morning rain and scattered afternoon storms for Monday.
Expect a possible 2-5″ of rain, and we'll monitor for any short-term flooding.
After this system moves by, we're looking at the hottest weather possibly of the entire year with highs well into the mid and maybe upper 90s later next week.

Warm evening Saturday, rolls into Sunday with even warmer temps
It was a warm and mostly dry Saturday across the area, and even warmer temps are expected for Sunday. The drier air has been courtesy of Saharan dust, and this dust will stick around tonight. Just a few spotty showers are expected in the early evening, with morning lows in the mid-70s. The Saharan dust will linger into Sunday, again resulting in low rain chances and warm temperatures. Just a few widely scattered showers and storms are expected, with highs pushing into the mid-90s. Moisture quickly returns to start next week. This will bring higher chances of rain and storms returning to the area for Monday. Highs to start the week will be in the low 90s. Even higher rain and storm chances are likely for the middle part of next week, as more tropical moisture rushes back into the area. Temperatures for Tuesday and Wednesday will be in the low 90s. The daily PM storm chances is expected to continue into next Thursday and Friday, with highs right around 90. Click here to download our free news, weather and smart TV apps.

FORECAST: Hot and humid weekend
ABOVE: The latest forecast update from Severe Weather Center 9. To stay on top of changing weather conditions, be sure to download our free WSOC-TV weather app. FORECAST: It's a warm and muggy start to our weekend with a few showers pushing through the mountains. It's going to be a hot and mostly dry day overall with temperatures climbing near 90 degrees. Factor in the humidity and it feels more like the mid-90s! We'll keep the chance for a hit or miss storm in the forecast with the heating of the day. A storm complex moving in from the west could also impact our area tonight and bring a chance for a strong to severe storm. However, the risk is low as many models have this activity diving south of I-85. Overall, it's a low risk for storms today, but anything we do see could be strong to severe with damaging wind gusts our highest concern. It's a similar story on Sunday with high heat, humidity, and an isolated strong to severe storm with the heating of the day. This summer-like pattern continues for much of next week as well. >> Channel 9's Weather 24/7 stream has the latest local weather all day, every day.

Searing heat to continue in Central Florida over the weekend
The heat we have seen for the last few days will continue across central Florida. Our high temperatures will range from 91 to 94 across the region, with the highest temperatures in Lake and Marion counties. Our chances of rain have mostly dried up for now. One or two passing showers are possible, primarily along the coast this afternoon and evening. No severe storms are anticipated. Rain chances will slowly increase over the next few days and peak in the middle of the upcoming week. The tropics are quiet for now. We are seeing a lot of Saharan dust over the Caribbean that will inhibit tropical development for at least a week. Click here to download our free news, weather and smart TV apps.
