Discussion

Low pressure moves off the Carolina coastline this morning and there will be gradual clearing across our region with an increase in winds from the northwest. High pressure ridging will edge into the area for the weekend leading to dry, cool conditions and winds will remain quite noticeable on Saturday as the pressure gradient remains strong between the departing low and the incoming high. Temperatures today will likely peak in the mid-to-upper 50’s for afternoon highs and then climb to or slightly above the 60 degree mark on both weekend days.
