Charlotte is waking up to morning fog and moisture Saturday morning. The weekend’s heat is not going anywhere, with a mostly sunny day topping out near 88°F and only a slim chance of a shower.
Patchy fog is expected through about 9 a.m. before the skies brighten. A stray shower could develop between 1 and 2 p.m., but the chance of rain is just 20%, with northeast winds staying light at 3 to 7 mph.
Sunny Sunday Gives Way To Stormier Weather
Saturday night remains part of the unsettled weather pattern. Sunday looks mostly sunny and nearly as warm, with a high around 89°F and only light southeast winds.
Temperatures may tick upward Monday before afternoon shower and thunderstorm chances increase. That is a noticeable change from Friday’s hotter setup, which Hoodline previously covered.
Cooler, Wetter Pattern Arrives Tuesday
Storm chances rise sharply Monday night, reaching 80%, and showers and thunderstorms are likely Tuesday as temperatures fall to a much cooler high near 79°F. The National Weather Service says a few storms could be strong, with damaging wind gusts the main concern.
Wednesday stays cooler as the midweek pattern shifts. A drier pattern may follow the front later in the week.
The provided forecast lists no active watches, warnings or advisories for the Charlotte area. For outdoor plans, Saturday and Sunday offer the better window, while Monday afternoon through Wednesday looks like the stretch most likely to bring rain and thunder.
