Raleigh is opening November with a cool, dry Sunday, but the week ahead is set to warm quickly. Early readings were in the low 50s, with partly sunny skies expected and an afternoon high near 67 degrees.
Sunday Stays Dry And Mild
The National Weather Service in Raleigh is forecasting partly sunny conditions across the city Sunday, November 1, with northeast winds between 3 and 7 mph and no meaningful rain chance. The National Weather Service also reported no active weather advisories for the area.
Clouds will increase Sunday night as temperatures settle near 48 degrees. Monday will bring another partly sunny day, with a high around 70 and light northeast winds.
Summerlike Warmth Arrives Tuesday
Raleigh's warm-up becomes more noticeable Tuesday, when sunny skies and a high near 77 are expected. Wednesday could be even warmer, reaching about 79 degrees under partly sunny skies — more of a late-summer encore than an early-November forecast.
Rain Chances Return Late Week
A slight chance of showers may arrive late Wednesday night, followed by a 50% chance of showers and thunderstorms Thursday. Friday carries a 40% chance of rain showers, while Saturday should turn partly sunny again after a small early shower chance, with a high near 74.
For Sunday plans, the forecast favors a jacket in the morning and comfortable conditions by afternoon. The bigger outdoor-planning question comes later in the week, when warmer temperatures meet a better chance of wet weather from Thursday into Friday.
