RALEIGH, N.C. — Severe weather across central North Carolina prompted tornado warnings Saturday evening. 

Skies had cleared in the Triangle by late Saturday night, but rain will likely return on Sunday.

"We will keep the clouds, but Sunday will be a whole different picture," WRAL Meteorologist Mike Maze said.

Sunday will dawn cooler, with lows in the 40s. Afternoon highs on the final day of the weekend will retreat into the 50s.  

"It will be very windy, much cooler, and we do have a chance throughout the day for some spotty showers," Maze said. "Winds could gust easily up to 30 to 40 mph."

It will warm up again for the start of the work week with Monday highs topping out near 70 degrees. 

"We're going to have thumbs up weather this week, and by Thursday and Friday we could have daytime highs up near 80 degrees," Maze said. "It's going to be a very nice start to April."

Sunshine will return Monday and stay put throughout the majority of the week.
