Rain and Wind Set to Dampen Raleigh, NWS Forecasts Soggy Commute and Persistent Showers

The National Weather Service in Raleigh is forecasting a wet and windy day ahead for Raleigh, North Carolina. With a 80 percent chance of precipitation, residents can expect showers likely between 3 p.m. and 4 p.m. today, accompanied by a high temperature near 80 degrees. The National Weather Service warns that gusts could reach as high as 18 mph, originating from the northeast at a steady 8 to 10 mph.

Moving on to the weekend, the forecast promises more of the same—a mostly cloudy Saturday, with a high near 82 and wind gusts that could potentially to hit upwards of 20 mph—suggesting that residents might want to hold off on any outdoor plans requiring clear skies.
