Summer temperatures, storm chances return to the Triad (2025)

JUST IN TIME BRIAN IS OUR WEATHER STARTING TO FINALLY HEAT UP? WE’RE GETTING INTO THIS PART OF THE SPRING. HOW WARM ARE WE GOING TO GET TODAY? CLOSE TO 80, I THINK IN MOST AREAS AND SOME 70S OUT WEST. IT’S CONTINUING THE TREND THAT WE BEGAN YESTERDAY, WARMING THINGS UP FROM SUNDAY. TEMPERATURES BUMPED UP ABOUT FIVE DEGREES FROM ONE DAY TO THE NEXT, A HIGH OF 75 OFFICIALLY AT PTI AIRPORT. UPPER 60S FARTHER WEST. IF YOU TAKE A LOOK AT OUR NUMBERS AS FAR AS THE AVERAGES GO, THAT’S A PRETTY TYPICAL DAY ACROSS OUR AREA. NOW, WE DID START A LITTLE COOLER YESTERDAY AT 46 DEGREES, BUT THE RETURN OF SOME SOUTH SOUTHEAST WINDS CERTAINLY ALLOWED THOSE TEMPERATURES TO RALLY. AND NOW WE’VE COOLED THINGS DOWN AGAIN UNDER A CLEAR SKY THIS MORNING THERE IS A WARM FRONT PASSING JUST TO OUR NORTH AND TO OUR WEST, ALLOWING SOME MILDER AIR TO GET IN. SO OUR TEMPERATURES ARE GOING TO MOVE UP. MORNING LOWS AND AFTERNOON HIGHS RESPECTIVELY. THIS FIRST FRONT ISN’T GOING TO GET THROUGH, SO WE’RE GOING TO STAY IN THE WARM SECTOR. AS A RESULT. WE’RE GOING TO HAVE SEVERAL DAYS WITH HIGHS IN THE 80S FOR THE REST OF THIS WEEK. COLDER AIR WILL BE WAITING. WE HAVE TEMPERATURES THAT ARE IN THE 30S. ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THAT BOUNDARY. THE TRANSITION IS BRINGING SOME DECENT STORMS INTO THE AREA, AND SOME OF WHICH WILL HAVE TO DEAL WITH BY TOMORROW, ESPECIALLY IN OUR NORTHERN AND WESTERN AREAS. THE FRONT THAT’S GOING TO KICK EVERYTHING THROUGH IS STILL ABOUT 3000 MILES AWAY ALONG THE PACIFIC COAST IN THE SEATTLE VANCOUVER REGION. GOT SOME RAIN THERE AND THIS WILL KICK THAT FIRST FRONT THROUGH AS WELL. YOU CAN SEE HOW THE WARM BUBBLE OF AIR AND THE REALLY THE BIG DISPARITY IN TEMPERATURES BETWEEN MEMPHIS AND SAY, FARGO MORE THAN 40 DEGREE DIFFERENCE IN THOSE AREAS. WE’VE STILL GOT A COOL POCKET OF AIR. WE’RE WAITING FOR THAT WARM FRONT TO PASS. AND ONCE IT DOES, OUR TEMPERATURES WILL JUMP A LITTLE BIT. YOU’LL FEEL IT. I THINK, MORE IN THE MORNINGS THAN YOU WILL IN THE AFTERNOONS, BUT WE ARE STARING DOWN SOME 80S FOR HIGHS COMFORTABLY. COOL. THIS MORNING, 50S FROM THE MOUNTAINS THROUGH THE TRIAD. FIRST THING THIS MORNING IS 60, IN CHARLOTTE, AS WELL AS WINSTON-SALEM, A RELATIVELY COOL 48 DEGREES IN BURLINGTON AND A PRETTY CLEAR SKY OUT THERE. THERE ARE A FEW PASSING CLOUDS MOVING IN, BUT CLOUDS WILL BE HIT OR MISS TODAY. I THINK WE’LL HAVE INCREASING CLOUDS IN THE MORNING MIDDAY. THEN THEY START TO THIN OUT AGAIN LATER ON. HIGH TEMPERATURES WILL BE CLOSE TO 81 DEGREES WITH SOUTHWEST WINDS AT 10 TO 15. IN THE FOOTHILLS, HIGH WILL BE CLOSE TO 8280 AS WELL. I SHOULD SAY. SOUTHWEST WINDS 10 TO 15MPH, MOSTLY TO PARTLY SUNNY SKIES EXPECTED, AND EVEN MOUNTAIN TEMPERATURES GET WELL INTO THE MID 70S. COULD EVEN SEE A SPOT OR TWO IN THE UPPER 70S. SOUTH WINDS AT 5 TO 10 AND AGAIN SOME HIT OR MISS CLOUDS. YOU CAN SEE THE WARMTH COMING THIS WEEK. HIGHS IN A LOW TO MID 80S AND COMPARED TO RECORD TEMPERATURES FOR EACH OF THOSE DATES, WE GET RELATIVELY CLOSE. BUT STILL IN THE BALLPARK. ANYWAY. I THINK WEDNESDAY IS THE BEST CHANCE TO CRACK THE TOP FIVE EVER. WARMEST TEMPERATURES FOR THAT PARTICULAR DATE, BUT OVERALL THINGS WILL START TO COOL DOWN, SO BE WARM FOR TONIGHT’S BASEBALL GAME. GRASSHOPPERS NASH CLOSE TO 80 AT FIRST PITCH. REALLY A BEAUTIFUL NIGHT FOR BASEBALL AND TEMPERATURES IN THE 70S AFTER THAT. AND THEN THE ROCKERS DON’T FORGET THEY KICK OFF THEIR SEASON FRIDAY NIGHT. EXCITED ABOUT THAT. TEMPERATURES IN THE 70S THIS WEEKEND. SATURDAY’S RAIN CHANCE FAVORING THE EARLY PART OF THE DAY. BUT THEY MAY LINGER INTO THE AFTERNOON. THE END OF THE FORECAST IS STILL
