The weekend outlook? Sunny and pleasant

Thursday's storms mostly missed Mecklenburg County, with very little rainfall recorded in local gauges. In contrast, counties just to the west saw downpours which included hail and damaging winds. Today - Friday - there is a chance of showers and storms across Mecklenburg County, but rain amounts will again likely be paltry.

Sunrise this morning at the John H. Kerr dam was at 6:09 a.m., and sunset will occur at 8:10 p.m. this evening. Temperatures which began the day in the low 60s will top out in the mid-70s this afternoon behind a cold front, which will push through this morning. Winds will turn around out of the northwest, and skies will be at least partly sunny much of the day.

The weekend then looks to feature glorious early May weather. Sunshine, light breezes, and afternoon highs in the 70s will prevail both Saturday and Sunday. Overnight weather will also be pleasant for sleeping as temperatures drop to near 50ยบ each morning.

Enjoy the weekend conditions. Next week looks to begin very wet as shown here:
