Charlotte, N.C. – Charlotte heads into a stretch of steady late-summer warmth, with highs near 90 degrees expected by Friday before slightly cooler conditions return over the weekend. Drivers and outdoor workers should prepare for prolonged sun exposure and warm afternoons through early next week.
According to the National Weather Service in Greenville-Spartanburg, Thursday will reach around 87 degrees under clear skies, followed by a warmer Friday topping out at 89. Winds will remain calm, keeping conditions stable but adding little relief from the afternoon heat.
By Saturday, highs ease back into the upper 80s, with partly cloudy skies developing Saturday night. Sunday and Monday remain comfortable, with highs in the lower 80s and overnight lows dipping into the mid-60s across Mecklenburg County.
