<p>INFORMATION ABOUT THIS, INCLUDING WHY THIS SHOOTING EVEN HAPPENED. ALL RIGHT. THANK YOU, CHRIS. IT'S NOT JUST THE MIDTERM ELECTIONS GETTING ATTENTION RIGHT NOW. ONE REPUBLICAN IS ALREADY WEIGHING HIS 2024 OPTIONS. &gt;&gt; AS WRAL'S BRIAN ANDERSON EXPLAINS NORTH CAROLINA'S TREASURER IS CONSIDERING A RUN FOR GOVERNOR. &gt;&gt; THE STATE'S NEXT RACE FOR GOVERNOR COULD DECIDE THE FUTURE OF ABORTION, IMMIGRATION AND OTHER KEY POLICY ISSUES. THIS IS ESPECIALLY TRUE IF REPUBLICANS DON'T GET THE SUPER MAJORITIES, THEY NEED TO OVERRIDE VETOES FROM DEMOCRATIC GOVERNOR ROY COOPER. REPUBLICAN STATE TREASURER DALE FOLWELL SAYS HE'S NOW CONSIDERING A RUN FOR GOVERNOR IN 2024, IF YOU RUNS, HE'LL LIKELY FACE OFF AGAINST LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR MARK ROBINSON WHO IS ALL BUT ANNOUNCED A RUN HIMSELF. NOW ROBINSON IS KNOWN FOR A LARGER THAN LIFE PERSONALITY. HE OFTEN INSULTS POLITICAL OPPONENTS AND THE LGBTQ COMMUNITY FOLLOW THINKS THERE'S A NEED FOR A CONSERVATIVE LIKE HIM WHO WOULD PLACE MORE EMPHASIS ON ECONOMIC ISSUES THAN ON DIVISIVE SOCIAL ISSUES. &gt;&gt; I'M ASSUMING A LOT OF CALLS OF PEOPLE WHO NO, MY TRACK RECORD, YOU KNOW, MY RESULTS WAY THAT APPROACH ATTACKING PROBLEMS AND NOT ATTACKING PEOPLE BECAUSE AT THE END OF THE DAY, IF YOU'RE GOING TO BE THE CEO OF THE LARGEST BUSINESS IN THE STATE, WHICH IS THE STATE. &gt;&gt; ITS RESULTS THAT'S GOING TO MATTER NOT READ EACH. &gt;&gt; MANY SEE ROBINSON AS THE FAVORITE BECAUSE OF HIS APPEAL TO HARDLINE CONSERVATIVES. SO IT MAY PROVE TO BE AN UPHILL BATTLE FOR FALL, BUT FOLLOW THINKS VOTERS MAY BE READY FOR A DIFFERENT STYLE OF CANDIDATE. &gt;&gt; PEOPLE ARE JUST SICK AND TIRED OF BEING ANGRY. PEOPLE ARE SICK AND TIRED OF BEING HAVING PEOPLE IN EACH OF THEM STARTS AM. AS I SAID WHAT PEOPLE REALLY WANT IS SOMEONE WHO SPEAKS TO THEM LIKE A LITTLE DOLLS. AND WHAT THEY SAY MAKES COMMON SENSE. &gt;&gt; I REACHED OUT TO ONE OF THE PEOPLE FALWELL SAYS HAS CONTACTED HIM ABOUT RUNNING ARTIST. WATKINS LEADS THE STATE EMPLOYEES ASSOCIATION OF NORTH CAROLINA. NOW THIS IS AN INFLUENTIAL GROUP OF MORE THAN 46,000 ACTIVE AND RETIRED STATE EMPLOYEES WITH A HISTORY OF BACKING FALWELL. AND HERE'S WHAT WATKINS HAD TO SAY ABOUT WHETHER ROBINSON IS EVEN ON THEIR MIND. I DON'T KNOW. MARK ROBINSON AND I DON'T REMEMBER A TIME THAT OUR MEMBERSHIP HAS DISCUSSED IN. HE'S NOT ON THE RADAR AS FAR AS OUR ORGANIZATION. SO WHY ARE WE EVEN TALKING ABOUT A RACE? THAT'S MORE THAN 2 YEARS AWAY? WELL, IT'S BECAUSE THE UPCOMING ELECTION WILL DETERMINE THE STAKES OF THE 2024 GUBERNATORIAL RACE. ROY COOPER WILL BE TERMED OUT AND IF REPUBLICANS CAN TAKE CONTROL OF THAT OFFICE, THEY'LL BE MORE LIKELY TO GET THEIR LEGISLATIVE AGENDA PROVED. AND THAT COULD MEAN A LOT FOR VOTERS WHO FEEL PASSIONATELY ABOUT ABORTION ONE WAY OR THE OTHER. BRIAN ANDERSON, WRAL NEWS NOW. WE DID REACH OUT TO THE LIEUTENANT GOVERNOR. HE DID NOT IMMEDIATELY RESPOND TO OUR REQUESTS FOR COMMENT &gt;&gt; IF YOU WANT TO LEARN MORE ABOUT WHAT A POSSIBLE FALWELL ROBINSON MATCHUP COULD LOOK</p>

I'm meteorologist K Campbell in the wr severe weather center. Here's your weekend forecast looks pretty good. On Saturday, there is a small chance for rain. That would be first thing very early in the morning in our northern counties. The rest of the day looks pretty good, partly cloudy, mid to perhaps upper seventies. By Sunday, it's much cooler. Highs struggle to get into the sixties even. It's a cloudy day and we've got some scattered showers in the forecast Sunday, but we're on the stable side of the front. So we're not severe weather on Sunday and we really could use some rain. We'll get to that in a minute. Let's talk about your Saturday planner because that's going to be the day to be outside 63 at 8 a.m. by noon, 71 and will be in the mid to upper seventies during the afternoon. Still in the low to mid seventies by dinner time. Future cash shows pretty quiet, start to the day. Perhaps a few showers in our northern counties and cloud cover to start, but those clouds clear and we'll see more sunshine later on before we cloud back overnight into Sunday morning. Scattered showers are possible throughout the first part of the day, Sunday and then we'll see a band of steadier rain make its way in as we head into Sunday evening and perhaps Sunday night as well. Early on, we need any rain, we can get the drought monitor showing an expanded region for abnormally dry and yellow. That's the morning stage before you reach drought status. So we really need some rain to prevent drought from developing as we head into the month of May. The system that's bringing our rain chances for your Friday night is this area of low pressure along with a cold front draped to the south. That cold front is going to knock temperatures down as well. We're down to 46 degrees on Monday morning, 44 we had to lower the low Tuesday morning because there's not likely to be as much cloud cover and that's going to allow temperatures to fall even further. But for the weekend morning will wake up to temperatures near 60 Saturday morning and in the lower fifties again on Sunday morning. If you are running the Tar Heel 10 miler, we got some pretty nice weather for it. A 20% chance for rain for early on. Otherwise temperatures will be in the low to mid 60 s. Looks like some pretty good running weather for us. Looking ahead to next week, we're still on the cooler side start 66. But Monday trending more sunshine And then as we get into Tuesday, Wednesday, we're likely to be back in the seventies, Wednesday. We've got a cold front coming the way it looks now. Only a small 20% chance for rain with the front, but it is going to knock temperatures down again. Not as dramatic but low temperatures could be back in the upper forties with highs in the upper sixties to lower seventies toward the end of next week.
