Limited sunshine Wednesday leads to slightly cooler temperatures
A weak disturbance expected to pass through Wednesday
- First half of November warmer than normal
- Chance for rain stays low
- Tropics becoming active
After a sunny, mild afternoon, clouds are already starting to work into the region tonight with lows falling into the 40s and low 50s.
WEDNESDAY CLOUDS
An isolated shower is possible Wednesday as a weak disturbance slides across the Carolinas. Most should remain dry, but the biggest thing we will notice from the system is cloudy skies.
Temperatures will be in the 60s for most (slightly cooler than today) thanks to the added clouds.

THURSDAY & FRIDAY
We end the week with partly to mostly sunny skies and dry conditions. Afternoon highs will read in the upper 60s and even a few low 70s. Overnight lows on these days will be in the 40s.
THE WEEKEND
The above normal temperature trend will continue during this weekend as upper-level ridging takes place. Highs will read in the low 70s for most which is a good 8-10° above average for the region.
We’ll notice more clouds into the weekend as well thanks to a southerly wind.

Rain chances look to be on the lower end for most of the weekend, but on Sunday a system could bring a stray shower in.
THE TROPICS
The tropics are still active as we move into the last month of the 2022 hurricane season. The National Hurricane Center has initiated advisories on Tropical Storm Lisa which is moving towards Mexico. It is possible it could strengthen into a hurricane before making landfall in Belize. This will not impact the U.S.
Tropical Storm Martin formed Wednesday morning and will not be a threat for the United States! It is several hundred miles east/northeast of Bermuda and will continue to move to the northeast in the Atlantic.
