Good morning everyone!
Skies are mostly clear early on this Wednesday morning and temperatures at 5 a.m. range from 66 in Clifton down to 60 at High Point. Winds are calm or light from the west and the humidity is still a little high with dew points in the 60s along with some patchy fog mainly inland.

AVERAGE HIGH: 80 AVERAGE LOW: 62
RECORD HIGH: 98 – 1973 RECORD LOW: 48 – 1986
YESTERDAY’S HIGH: 91 LOW: 71 PRECIPITATION: .30″
High pressure will build into our area today and it will be a sunny day, breezy with much less humidity by the afternoon as dew points fall into the 50s. High temperatures will still rise to the upper 80s.
Very nice weather for the first two days of September with high pressure still in control which will give us mostly sunny weather both days with near seasonable temperatures and continued low humidity.
The holiday weekend looks to be a little unsettled, Saturday should be dry and warm with a slow increase in humidity.
Sunday should be a very warm day and humid as the high pressure moves offshore a cold front will be approaching from the west that will give us the next chance of showers Sunday afternoon and evening.
Still a chance of showers on Labor Day and it will not be as warm.
