Charlotte started Monday with clear skies and temperatures in the mid-40s, but sunshine will quickly take over. The Queen City is headed for a high near 72 degrees, making for a mild afternoon after a chilly start.

The National Weather Service expects no rain today, with a light north-northeast breeze around 5 mph. A Frost Advisory remains in effect until 8 a.m. Monday for parts of the North Carolina mountains and foothills, but it does not include Charlotte or Mecklenburg County.

Morning Chill Gives Way To Sunny Afternoon

Temperatures should climb through the 50s and 60s late this morning before reaching the low 70s during the afternoon. Winds will fade toward calm tonight as skies stay mostly clear and temperatures drop to around 45 degrees.

The Week Starts Dry And Warms Up

Tuesday looks even warmer, with sunshine and a high near 75 degrees, followed by a mostly sunny Wednesday near 72 and Thursday near 74. Friday currently appears to be the warmest day of the stretch, with clear skies and a high near 78.

That extended dry spell is a slight update from Hoodline's Sunday forecast, which already pointed to a sunny, warmer week but had less detail on the weekend rain signal.

Halloween Weekend Stays Mild Before Rain Chances Return

Saturday should remain comfortable for Halloween plans, with mostly sunny skies and a high near 77 degrees. A slight chance of showers arrives after 1 a.m. Sunday, with rain possible during the day.

Sunday night also brings mostly cloudy skies and a small chance of showers, with a low around 44 to 46 degrees. For now, the best outdoor-weather window runs from Monday through Saturday, with the main weather question waiting for the final day of the weekend.
