A few more storms today ahead of drier and hotter weather pattern
(PINPOINT WEATHER) — Good Sunday morning! We are starting warmer and a touch more humid this morning compared to yesterday. Temperatures are in the lower 60s for the most part this morning, with a few more 50s towards the foothills and mountains.
Expect high temperatures to be anywhere between the mid to upper 70s and lower 80s this afternoon. We will have a secondary cold front moving through today, which will trigger scattered showers and storms this afternoon and evening across the Charlotte metro. A storm or two may contain gusty winds and hail, however, the severe threat is very isolated today.
Storms will gradually clear out as we head into the late evening and overnight hours, allowing for clearing skies and temperatures to fall into the 50s. Keep your eyes on the sky later tonight; there is a chance the Carolinas could witness the Northern Lights due to a severe geomagnetic storm.
No promises, but there is a legit chance to see the aurora borealis tonight into early Monday. When viewing the northern lights, be sure to be away from any light pollution.
A nice weather pattern for the start of the work week is ahead. Seasonable temperatures to start the week, with high temperatures in the lower 80s and morning lows in the upper 50s.
By Wednesday of this week, temperatures will turn more summerlike, with highs rising into the mid to upper 80s. That hotter and more humid pattern will continue into next weekend, with increasing storm chances by Friday and into 2025 Nexstar Media, Inc. All rights reserved.
