More Clouds and Less Heat

Widely scattered showers and thundershowers will dissipate through the evening.

Monday is basically the same as Sunday but a touch cooler due to more clouds and showers persisting into the night. Tuesday will bring us a noticeably cooler day with clouds and storms ending by evening. That will set the stage for four consecutive fantastic weather days; especially for late July. Wednesday through Saturday look to be mostly sunny with below average temperatures and dry conditions.

RaysWeather.com has been involved with the Middle Fork Greenway for several years. The Middle Fork Greenway is a premier project of Blue Ridge Conservancy to connect Blowing Rock to Boone with a multi-use recreational trail. Many local businesses are partnering with the 'Round-Up for the Greenway in July' campaign by finding creative ways to encourage support for the Middle Fork Greenway. The pop-up ad on BooneWeather.com will appear once per day per computer and we hope you will contribute. Additionally, RaysWeather.com is donating July mobile app sales to the Middle Fork Greenway.

Forecast Discussion

A cold front is moving toward us from the northwest and this will result in more clouds and greater coverage of showers and thundershowers this afternoon and evening. The cold front moves slowly toward western NC Monday but is still to our west so Monday is basically a carbon copy of today.

Tuesday is when you'll notice a change as the front goes through Tuesday morning. The rain and clouds will stick around until the evening but the temperatures will be much cooler. Once the moisture clears out Tuesday night, we'll be under the influence of a cool (for July anyway) high pressure centered to our northwest. The high will bring us a very nice stretch of weather, Wednesday through Saturday with below average temperatures, dry conditions, mostly sunny skies and a refreshing breeze. We hope you get a chance to take advantage of this nice weather.
