Southeast North Carolina residents should prepare for a wet start to Veterans Day, as showers are likely to move through the region, especially in the morning. Temperatures are expected to reach the mid-70s, providing a mild but damp day. Motorists are advised to drive carefully on wet roadways, including I-40 and other heavily trafficked routes, as reduced visibility and slick conditions may develop during showers.
According to the National Weather Service in Wilmington, the rain may ease up by this afternoon, with a slight chance of continued scattered showers lingering. The rain is anticipated to bring only minimal accumulation, but localized areas may experience brief heavier showers. By Monday night, skies will start to clear, leading into a more stable weather pattern.
Looking ahead, Tuesday is expected to be sunny with highs around 72°F. As the week progresses, temperatures will gradually cool down, with a high of 64°F forecasted for Wednesday, which will remain sunny. For the latter half of the week, Thursday might see another round of light showers in the afternoon, as clouds increase with temperatures peaking around 65°F.
Residents are encouraged to plan accordingly for varying conditions this week, keeping an eye on weather updates, especially if outdoor plans are in place. For Veterans Day events, bringing an umbrella and dressing in light layers will help navigate the shifting weather comfortably.
