North Carolina’s Weekend Forecast Will Surprise You – Don’t Miss These Weather Shifts!

Good news, North Carolina! This weekend is shaping up to be one of the best we’ve seen in a while, with plenty of sunshine and mild temperatures. If you’ve been itching for an excuse to get outside, this is it. There is a small chance of showers Friday night, but don’t let that stop you from making plans—just bring an umbrella, and you’ll be good to go!

Let’s break it down day by day so you can plan your weekend.

Friday, February 28: Warm and Sunny, But Keep an Eye on the Sky Tonight

Friday starts off on a beautiful note, with mostly sunny skies and comfortable temperatures in the low-to-mid 60s across the state. It’s the kind of day that makes you want to take your lunch outside or crack the windows for some fresh air.

But as the sun sets, things could get a little wet—a weak system may bring scattered showers, mostly in the western and central parts of the state.

  • Charlotte, Greensboro, and Asheville could see light rain between 7 PM and midnight.
  • It’s nothing too dramatic—just a few passing showers, no big storms.
  • If you’ve got evening plans, bring a light rain jacket or an umbrella just in case.

It won’t be a washout, just a quick drizzle before a gorgeous weekend ahead!

Saturday, March 1: The Perfect Day for Outdoor Fun

Saturday is the real winner this weekend. Expect plenty of sunshine, barely a cloud in the sky, and highs climbing into the upper 60s and low 70s. It’s the kind of weather that just makes you happy to be outside—whether you’re heading to the park, hiking in the mountains, or firing up the grill in your backyard.

Highs for Saturday:

  • Raleigh: 70°F
  • Charlotte: 71°F
  • Greensboro: 69°F
  • Asheville: 63°F

No rain, no humidity, no excuses—just get outside and enjoy it!

Sunday, March 2: A Little Cooler, But Still Gorgeous

Sunday brings a slight cool-down as a cold front moves in, but don’t worry—it’s not a dramatic drop. Highs will be in the upper 40s to low 50s, so it’ll feel crisp and refreshing rather than cold.

  • Raleigh and Greensboro: Around 50°F
  • Charlotte: 52°F
  • Asheville and the mountains: Upper 40s

Skies will stay bright and sunny, so it’s still a great day for a morning walk, brunch outside (just grab a sweater!), or a lazy Sunday drive.

Final Thoughts: What to Expect This Weekend

Friday: Warm and mostly sunny, with a chance of evening showers (especially west).
Saturday: Absolutely beautiful—sunny, warm, and perfect for being outdoors.
Sunday: Cooler but still bright and pleasant—a great way to wrap up the weekend.

All in all, this weekend is giving us exactly what we need—a break from winter’s gloom and a taste of spring! So go ahead, make those plans, soak up the sun, and enjoy the weekend, North Carolina!
