Rain is finally coming to the Triangle. Here's when and how long it'll last

A cold front will bring widespread rain to central North Carolina on Friday, Nov. 6. That’s the first bout of rain since mid-October, which only brought about 2.5 inches of rain throughout the entire month, according to National Weather Service data . The rain will start overnight Thursday, pick up Friday morning and last most of the day. In all, we could see half-an-inch to an inch of rain in the Triangle, with some eastern parts of the central part of the state getting 1.5 inches. “It will bring widespread rain (in central North Carolina) and a chance for several thunderstorms across our eastern areas,” said Tom Green, meteorologist with the National Weather Service’s Raleigh office. “We do not have a chance of rain in the forecast after Friday evening.” Temperatures will remain above normal on Thursday and Friday (63 degrees is the normal high for this time of year in Raleigh), but should reach near-normal ranges on Saturday, Nov. 7. Temperatures aren’t forecasted to reach higher than 69 degrees and lows are in the 40s next week in Raleigh. There is a marginal risk— 1 out of 5 — of severe thunderstorms east of US-1 including Rocky Mount, Fayetteville

Cooling waters raise concerns for manatees along North Carolina coast

WILMINGTON, NC (WWAY) — While air temperatures may still feel warm, water temperatures are beginning to drop across North Carolina, putting manatees at risk for cold stress. Experts say now is an important time for the public to keep an eye out for the marine mammals, which frequently visit North Carolina waters during the summer months.
