Description: The two candidates running for what has become the most contested seat on the Wake County Board of Education are in the final stretch of their campaigns, a week before voters will go to the polls for a second time to decide the race.

The organizer of the campaign tells WRAL News that he's creating an organization with a board that seeks to carry out the fundraiser's primary goal: to throw "a world-class party." The group also hopes to give excess money to charities.

Hi, everyone. Meteorologist Anthony Baglione. Here we continue to track some showers and storms as we head through the rest of this weekend. Yes, we have seen some dry time across the area. But I think as we go into our Sunday, even Monday, we're going to watch that potential for some off and on showers and storms. So I want to walk through futurecast with you. Let's talk about here as we go into tonight against some moffet on coverage. If you're headed out and about, you may want to bring the umbrella with you. We go into the early part of our Sunday morning. I'm gonna pause this here as we head, let's say, closer to church services. If you're out for breakfast tomorrow morning, it should be pretty light from the triangle to the east. But you notice around Sanford, Fayetteville, it may start to fill in a little bit more as we go through the morning. I would plan on at least the possibility of some rainfall to start our day and even lunchtime, we're looking a little bit wet and then this all starts to wind down at least this batch of it into tomorrow. Afternoon and evening. Sunday night itself is looking pretty calm. We go into our Monday and especially Monday afternoon, we're going to do it all over again, potentially a little bit wetter with some showers and storms to start the upcoming week. Here's a look at how things shape up into the day tomorrow. We may need to tweak those percentages a little bit, but 40 to 50 early on, we go to 60% during the afternoon. Like I said, I don't want you to get caught off guard tomorrow if you're out and about going to the grocery or something like that. I still would plan on the potential for some rain over the next seven days. Check out these totals. We're looking at around two inches there around the triangle, an inch and three quarters. Roxboro Southern Pines an inch and a half. This is really going to be kind of a summery stretch of unsettled weather for us where temperatures go from our normal of 77 tomorrow up to 92 on Wednesday. But along with that because of the heat because of some humidity, we're going to watch multiple rain chances you can see it there in the percentages at the bottom. It looks like our drier day though, comes in for Wednesday. There's still gonna be a chance of a stray shower or storm. But for the most part, no day is totally dry where I can say. Yep, that looks perfect to get outside all day long. I think Wednesday though, for the most part looks decent 77 tomorrow, 82 on Monday, scattered showers and storms also likely Monday afternoon, Tuesday morning, we could see some and then again into Friday, even Thursday night, Friday, we could see some more rain. So looking a bit unsettled, we could use this rainfall though. So on the whole, I know it may be inconvenient but we really need some rain across the area.
