Charlotte is starting Thursday, September 24, under cloudy skies and cool conditions, with rain in the forecast through midmorning. Showers are expected to fizzle by afternoon, but the bigger weather story is a drier pattern and temperatures returning toward normal next week.
Rain Fades By Late Afternoon
Showers are forecast before 11 a.m. Thursday, with lingering showers and drizzle beginning to fizzle by afternoon, while conditions at KCLT are expected to improve Thursday. Highs are forecast mostly in the 60s, while winds are forecast from the northeast, according to the National Weather Service.
For commuters and anyone with outdoor plans, rain is expected through midmorning, with showers likely to fizzle by afternoon. Fog chances could increase late Thursday night or early Friday morning. No watches, warnings or advisories are listed for the Charlotte area, making this a mostly soggy inconvenience rather than a severe-weather day.
Sunny Weekend, Warmer Start To Next Week
Tonight turns partly cloudy with a low near 51, then Friday brings sunshine and a high near 72. Saturday and Sunday should stay sunny, with highs near 79 and 80.
Temperatures are expected to return toward normal next week. Rain chances stay near zero through Tuesday and remain low Wednesday, so the gray start to Thursday appears to be a short detour rather than a preview of the weekend.
This updated outlook follows Hoodline’s Wednesday forecast, with the timing of the drier pattern now clearer.
