The Word Cold Isn't Enough...

It's too bad there aren't any acceptable words to describe how frigid our morning temperatures were through North Carolina. I'm sure there are many four letter words you could use, but you won't find 'em here. All I can say is brrrrr...

• Raleigh: 15
• Fayetteville: 18
• Lumberton: 22
• Wilson: 16
• Greensboro: 14
• Charlotte: 17
• Winston-Salem: 13

It appears as if this will be the lowest the temps will go this week. A combination of clouds and a moderating airmass will keep lows in the middle to upper 20s through the rest of this work week. Down the road there could be another outbreak of Arctic air, but this time the two branches of the jet stream may be coming together to raise the chances of a future storm off the coast. It's still too early to see any storms developing on the horizon, but this pattern will need to be monitored for the next week and a half to two weeks.
