CHARLOTTE, N.C. —
Saturday
Today will be mostly cloudy with afternoon temperatures in the mid-upper 70s. It'll feel sticky outside with elevated humidity levels! Winds will stay light.
A stray shower is possible (less than 20%). Overnight, look for lows in the upper 50s to around 60 degrees.
Sunday
Tomorrow should be a partly sunny day with no rain in the forecast. Temperatures will soar to the low 80s as a significant warming trend begins.
Sunday night will remain mostly clear with lows in the upper 50s. A few high clouds will set up a vibrant sunset and eventual sunrise on Monday.
Big Warm Up
After Sunday, highs will soar to the mid-upper 80s virtually every day of the work week. Right now, the only work day with a chance of storms during the afternoon is Tuesday as a trough of low pressure develops nearby.
Strong high pressure will keep any fronts from pushing through the Carolinas until late week. This will bring another small chance for rain and storms from Friday evening through the weekend.
Pollen Report
Tree pollen is the main cause of high pollen levels for late April before these numbers begin to decrease by mid-May.
