The weather is about to get much more windy, wetter, and cooler in the coming days.

Friday will be mostly cloudy to overcast, but the bulk of the rain will remain east of our area.

Temperatures will top out in the low 70s as high pressure to our north ushers in cool, dry air again.

Rain will start pushing back into the area late Friday into Saturday.

A coastal storm system is expected to send copious moisture inland as the center of the storm moves toward the SC/NC state line.

It will be windy and wet with gusts close to 35 mph on Saturday.

Scattered showers will stick around Sunday and Monday for Memorial Day as well.

A high near 85 degrees is seasonal for end of May, it looks like we'll finally see temperature rebound to end the month.
