Derrah Getter's First Warning Forecast

We get a brief break from the rain before more returns this weekend.

The skies will be much brighter today. Minor tidal flooding is forecast just before noon. High temperatures this afternoon will struggle to reach 70 degrees. Tonight, lows fall into the upper 50s.

The sunshine sticks around Friday. There will be a slight chance of a few spotty showers mainly along the Outer Banks. Highs will be near 70.

Widespread rainfall returns this weekend. Scattered showers begin moving in Saturday afternoon. The rain will continue through early Monday morning. This is all associated with the forecast development of a coastal low. Coastal and tidal flooding, and wind gusts around 50 mph will be some of our biggest impacts.
