Near record warmth today...

Highs will surge in the mid to upper 80s today under a sunny sky. The GSP airport down in the Upstate of South Carolina set a new record high yesterday, and I think several record highs around the region could fall today. Record highs today are as follows....

Greensboro: 87
Charlotte: 86
Asheville: 87
GSP: 84
RDU: 90

The Greensboro, Charlotte, and GSP record highs have a good chance of being tied or broken today.

For the Easter weekend, we will see some mid and high level clouds at times, but still lots of sunshine overall. A stray shower can't be ruled out in the western mountains, but the Piedmont to the coast will remain dry. Around the Piedmont, highs tomorrow will be in the lower 80s with upper 70s to lower 80s Easter Sunday.

If you are heading to sunrise services Sunday morning, temps will be in the 50s.

We will continue to see lots of 80s for highs Monday through Wednesday next week before a stronger cold front brings some showers and cooler temps toward the end of next week.

Everyone have a safe and blessed Easter weekend....
