Forecast Discussion

Tonight will be mostly clear and cool with temperatures falling to just below freezing. Friday will be a notch warmer than today, although clouds will be rolling in during the day ahead of a strong cold front. A couple light showers will accompany the cold front Friday afternoon and evening, followed by clearing.

Saturday will be mostly sunny but noticeably colder, especially by Saturday night. Saturday night will be the coldest night since early January around western North Carolina. Sunday features a bright and sunny day, but temperatures will have a decided February chill.

A gradual rebound in temperatures will commence next week. The next weather system will slide in by Monday night or Tuesday, with the arrival of our next rain chances. There could be enough cold air in place for rain to begin as a wintry mix late Monday night.
