Some areas of patchy frost will be possible under a clear sky and lighter winds early Sunday morning west and northwest of the Charlotte zone. The Asheville region has a freeze warning for Sunday morning. Spring vegetation should be protected. 

A substantial warmup occurs Monday, ahead of the next cold front, with highs topping out in the 80s for much of the region. A few showers are possible as the front moves in early Tuesday, but the best chance for any measurable rainfall will stay confined to the Tennessee border.

As the front exits, a cool and dry air mass settles back in. There will likely be another front forced southward near the end of the week, but this will not bring any precipitation.
