MARINE FORECAST: A Gale Warning is in effect from 10AM Monday until 10AM Tuesday. Seas will be 4'- 8' on the coast and the waters will be rough then very rough by the evening for the rivers and sounds. Water temperature is in the lower 50s for the Crystal Coast and lower 40s for the rivers and sounds. Winds will be from the Southwest at 20-25 knots with gusts that could reach 40-50 knots. High tide is at 11:54am and low tide will be at 6:00am.
WEATHER SUMMARY: We are tracking an incoming low pressure system in the StormTrack 12 Weather Center. This system brings a wavy warm front across the Tennessee Valley and through North Carolina. The warm front will move northeastward on Monday as the low pressure system pushes into the state. Scattered showers and possible wintery mixes were expected overnight. Monday morning will generally start out on the drier side but rain will move into the area by 9am/10am and continue until dinner time. Expect to see a few scattered downpours and maybe a rumble of thunder.
Monday will be the warmest day of the week with highs in the low 60s. This is due to the warm front. By Monday night the front will have moved away and temperatures will take a big drop. With the rain you should expect to see strong wind gusts that could potentially reach the 40-50mph range, mainly in the bottom half of ENC. Overall, expect to see rain and strong winds all day to start the work week.
Tuesday will be mostly sunny and chilly. The low pressure system that was moving through ENC will push offshore in the northeastern direction. A cold front will push behind it, causing our temperatures to be below normal. This will have an arctic air mass settle over our area. High temperatures will be in the low 40s for Tuesday, dropping into the low to mid 20s overnight. Strong winds and wind gusts will continue, seeing speeds of 30+ mph through the day. Tuesday night will be very cold. The strong winds will add a very cold wind chill, bringing the feels-like temperatures way below actual temperatures.
The middle of the week will be met with lots of sunshine. We will continue to see dry conditions with chilly temperatures. Luckily, the wind will die down a little and provide a bit of relief from the wind chill. This will be one of the coldest days of the week, with highs in the upper 30s and lower 40s. This could have the potential for a Cold Weather Advisory. The same conditions will be seen on Thursday. Highs may not even reach the 40s in some areas. Low temperatures could potentially reach the teens. Friday will see temperatures in the same trend as the days before. A high pressure system will be right above North Carolina and will be pushed northward by an incoming low.
StormTrack 12 meteorologists are tracking another weather maker for the weekend. A low pressure system will zip through the southern US. We will see a deep initial trough which would tend to favor a better chance of wintry weather. There is a chance that the strength for both flip and cause the winter weather chances to decrease. Overall, ENC should expect to see rain on Saturday regardless. The precipitation should let up by the evening. Sunday will be drier and sunshine will return to end the weekend.
High temperatures will be in the low 60s on Monday. The temperatures will take a big drop into the low 40s and upper 30s from Tuesday until Friday. Saturday and Sunday will see highs in the mid to upper 40s. Low temperatures will be in the upper 30s on Monday, low 30s on Tuesday and will drop to the low 20s and upper teens Wednesday and Thursday. Low temperatures will return to the low 30s and upper 20s by Friday and stick around for the weekend.
