Cloudier/Cooler Start To The Week

High pressure nosing down the eastern slopes of the mountains and Foothills will promote a wedge of cooler and more moist air today. This will promote overcast skies and maybe some spotty light rain or drizzle --- We’re not expecting much in the way of rainfall at all. You will notice the difference in temperatures, however.

The wedge will slowly begin to release on Tuesday, but we still expect mostly cloudy skies and perhaps a passing light shower.

A cold front will approach the region by late Wednesday, providing our best shot at more significant rainfall later Wednesday through Thursday.

We’re anticipating a cleaner frontal passage by Friday, which will hopefully set us up for a dry and pleasant weekend across western North Carolina. We'll be monitoring the progress of that front to see if that becomes a reality.
