About this listen

Good morning. North Carolina. I'm Aaron Jolly. Folks, if you walked outside and thought someone swapped North Carolina for Seattle overnight. You're not wrong. That gray, damp chill hitting your face right now? Blame a backdoor cold front that snuck in while you slept. Cold air damming is pinning chilly northeast winds against the mountains. and just like that, we lost 39 degrees to 39 degrees from yesterday. In the next 24 hours. The Triangle is sitting at 39 degrees this morning. Highs only crawl to 50. Light rain develops after 10 A.M. and sticks around into tonight. Northeast gusts hit 24 miles an hour. That wind finds every zipper gap you've got. Slide south into the Piedmont. You're starting at 43 degrees with a high near 49. Spotty showers drift in late morning through mid afternoon. Tonight drops to 41 under stubborn clouds. Now the mountains get rain first. Showers roll in around 8 A.M. and taper off by midday. Highs top out at 48 degrees. Lows tonight hover near 40. Keep the umbrella close today. but here's where the plot twist lives. Tuesday that cold wedge starts cracking. Highs bounce back into the low 60s statewide. Then Wednesday. The whole pattern flips. Warm southwest air surges in. Mid 70s Wednesday and Thursday. By the weekend? Upper 70s pushing 81 degrees. That's nearly 39 degrees above normal for early March. Your winter coat goes in the closet. The trade off is showers building Thursday through the weekend. Sunday looks like the soggiest day. Spring equinox is 18 days out. This week's forecast got the memo early. Charge your phone, grab that rain jacket. and maybe brew a second cup. You earned it on a Monday like this. For the extended outlook, check the latest forecast as confidence improves. That's your forecast — we'll be back tomorrow.
