First Alert: Tropical moisture will increase our rain chances here at home to wrap up the work week and into the start of the weekend.
Tropical Storm Francine is forecast to make landfall as a hurricane along the coast of Louisiana by Thursday morning and then move inland along the Mississippi River into the end of the week. By the weekend, the then remnants of Francine will be stalled out to our west and rounds of rain will be possible here at home as a front will be draped to our south.
With high pressure anchored to our northeast, there will be a range of rain totals across the Carolinas. Friday and Saturday will be the days with the greatest chance for local rain impacts, with only a few showers possible on Sunday.
By the start of next week, we’ll be watching Tuesday for our next chance of rain. Stay tuned for frequent forecast updates as we get closer!
