Charlotte woke to clear skies and temperatures near 45 degrees Tuesday, but the afternoon is headed toward a remarkably warm 71. Sunshine and light winds will dominate the day before a sharper late-week cooldown puts November back in charge.
Sunshine Holds Through Veterans Day
Tuesday will stay sunny, with light/variable or calm winds through daybreak, then light southwest winds late in the morning, while Wednesday brings mostly sunny skies and a high near 71. The National Weather Service lists no watches, warnings or advisories for the Charlotte area.
Rain Chance Thursday, Colder Weekend
Thursday will remain partly sunny with a slight chance of light rain late in the afternoon and a high near 67. Friday turns mostly sunny but breezier and cooler near 57, a more pronounced change than the earlier outlook reported by Hoodline.
The weekend looks dry and bright, but overnight temperatures will fall to around 35 degrees Friday night and 33 Saturday night before Sunday rebounds to about 58. The broader regional forecast also points to a colder, wetter setup in the mountains late Friday and Friday night, with the best chance for snow confined to higher elevations near the Tennessee border.
