Frosty, chilly morning but warm up on the way

By WRAL Severe Weather Center

This morning we are waking up to colder temperatures, but a warm up is on the horizon.

Temps are in the 20s across the Triangle this morning, and a frost advisory is in place until 9 a.m.

But some good news -- a southwest flow should warm the weather up this afternoon, and highs are expected to be in the upper 50s to 60s.

Another cold front is expected to arrive Friday night which will increase our rain chances.

Temperatures through Saturday will feature temperatures more normal for this time of year with highs in the upper 50s and low 60s, although there will be a chance for rain on Friday and Saturday.
