Raleigh Weather Update: Early Showers & Mild November Temps Ahead

Raleigh residents, get ready for a dynamic start to your Wednesday! Local meteorologist Brian Slocum provides insights into what the Triangle can expect today and as we head further into the week. While you might need your umbrella for a brief moment, a pattern of unseasonably mild November temperatures is set to continue.

Wednesday Morning Commute: What to Expect

For those hitting the roads early this Wednesday, be aware of some scattered showers making their way through the Raleigh area. These early morning rainfalls, while potentially impactful for the initial part of your commute, are expected to taper off quickly. By mid-morning, conditions should begin to clear up significantly. However, a few lingering raindrops might still be around, so keep that in mind as you head out. Always drive safely and allow for extra travel time.

Unseasonably Mild November Temperatures

Despite the fleeting morning rain, one of the defining characteristics of this week’s Raleigh weather is the persistent mildness. Temperatures are set to climb, making for an unseasonably warm November feel. While we’ll generally experience pleasant conditions, Slocum notes that we can also anticipate a slight ebb and flow in temperatures throughout the week. Don’t be surprised if one day feels a touch cooler than the last, only to rebound the next. This fluctuation means layers might be your best friend!

Planning Your Week Around Raleigh’s Forecast

With mild November temperatures dominating the forecast, it’s an excellent time to enjoy outdoor activities once the morning dampness dissipates. Keep an eye on the hourly forecast for the subtle temperature shifts, especially if you have plans that extend from day to evening. For the most current radar and any potential weather alerts specific to the Triangle area, it’s always wise to consult official sources.
