Forecast Discussion

High pressure ridging at the surface and aloft is going to promote a few days of hotter and humid weather across western North Carolina. Heat will promote instability, and this will give rise to mostly afternoon and evening showers and thunderstorms.

The hot and humid weather will be broken by a southward-sagging cold front this weekend. Saturday looks active, with PM & nighttime showers and thunderstorms a good bet. Clouds linger into Sunday, but the cooling behind the front will become more noticeable for the second half of the weekend.

We’ve tentatively penciled in a dry day for Monday, along with seasonably pleasant temperatures.
