Switching gears now to your weather forecast.
You're taking a live look at pictures
from Freedom Boat Club 1145 right now,
sending it over to meteorologist Brittany van
Voorhees with everything you need to know.
And I think we're looking up a little bit
for the weekend compared to how we were
this week, right? Look,
Sarah, there's some blue.
Love it. It's coming.
We haven't seen blue skies
and I don't know when.
It's since Monday morning.
Yeah, literally what
is that? Over 96 hours,
so almost 100 hours of complete cloud
cover expanding across the area.
So I think many folks are going
to like this site, right.
A little bit of blue skies starg
to peek through the clouds there
from South Charlotte from our
camera there near Pineville.
Now there are a few active areas
of some light to moderate rain.
So let's track them first.
Now these are coming in from the
southeast or southwest that is d
pushing toward the northeast right now.
A few downpours here just.
To the West of Providence,
there near 52,
you can see hugging Independence Blvd.
There near Matthews and Mitt Hi.
Again these are traveling northeastward,
so toward Allen Flow Store therd
parts here of southern Mecklenburg County.
We also have a few thunderstorms
there in southern portions of
York County near Leslie again
traveling to the north and east.
So Wedington,
you'll likely get some of
this rain here very shortly.
Thankfully these aren't kind of
sitting in the same spots like e
of that rain we had yesterday in Anson
County as we check out Cabarrus County.
Thankfully a lot of this rain
staying away from those areas.
Northwest of Kannapolis that saw
significant flooding earlier this week,
but we do have a few downpours.
They're heading toward Georgevi.
There may be clipping Mount Pleasant,
New London,
a few areas of some spotty showers as you
get closer to Rowan and Stanley counties.
Now,
rain chances today are still in the forecast,
They're just going to be much lr
than what we've seen the past few days.
In fact,
you can see those few specks of green
here and there for the rest of this evening.
But most of this does look to wp
up pretty quickly after sunset.
So by about 9:00 o'clock or so,
I think most areas will be dry, rinse,
repeat, kind of forecast for Saturday,
just like this morning.
We start off with areas of locally dense fog,
a few showers,
maybe a thunderstorm or two in the afternoon.
But overall it is not going
to be a widespread event.
And I'm pausing this here at 8:00 o'clock,
so you can see that by CharlottC
kickoff there for the match at .
There will be a sprinkle or two around,
but it's not necessarily going
to be a widespread event.
But you will want to watch a few
thunderstorms for in tailgating
activities and then showers on Sunday.
Those are going to be hard to fd
as most of the area will be mosy
sunny for the majority of the d.
So let's check out your forecast
for Friday afternoon and evening
doubleheader for the nights bece
one of their games earlier thisk
was postponed because of the weather.
So the first one, first pitch at 5:30.
Again,
I think we could be tracking
a few thunderstorms around,
but it is not heavy or widespred
of rain and
not expanding for the entirety of that game,
so keeping a close eye on that for today.
Again, they do have a doublehear
later on this weekend though,
more opportunities to see the n.
At home and this weather gets even better.
Check out this forecast.
Mid 80s tomorrow, although still muggy,
I'll take it right Taking the
sunshine a Saturday afternoon,
rain chances few and far between Sunday.
You're really searching hard
for it with a mostly sunny sky
and a high close to 90 degrees.
So big changes there from
what we've seen this week.
And Speaking of changes,
we're tracking 2 tropical storms right now,
active in the tropics.
And while this is pretty abnormal for June,
I'm not really too concerned
about Brett or Cindy.
Brett, first of all,
not a threat.
To the United States and not
a threat to the Carolinas.
Cindy unlikely to impact us
here in the Charlotte area,
but notice as we get closer to next week,
eventually models having a turn toward
the north and eventually the northeast.
Closer proximity though could
definitely enhance their rip cut
risk heading into that first weekend,
a 4th of July weekend.
I say that first because you
know it's on that Tuesday.
So which is the official one, Who knows?
But anyway, it's the first week,
next weekend of July.
We definitely could be watching
some enhanced rip currents
along the immediate coast,
but of course you can trust the.
WCNC Charlotte Weather team to p
you weather aware whether you're here
or in our local area in the curt
line is along the beaches next weekend,
so let's check out that quick
forecast Quick look at the guy
roofing seven day again today.
Fewer storm chances compared to this week.
Same thing for Saturday and Sun.
We do see an enhanced chance
for rain and storms on Monday,
but that's likely our wettest dy
of the week as some drier air ms
in again next Wednesday, Thursd.
So the roller coaster ride continues,
but how about no gross weather
like what we've had this week?
But.
