Steady rainfall was slow to leave and allowed for much of central North Carolina to see one to three inches of rain.

Now that high pressure is settling in, we can expect clearer skies to develop tonight through Friday morning. Winds will be breezy at times, allowing for most temperatures to stay above the threshold for a frost.

However, for some rural locations, there may be some patchy frost at sunrise.

Most low temperatures will be in the upper 30s and lower 40s.

Sunny skies are expected for most of Good Friday with a warmer afternoon. A few clouds will make an appearance in the afternoon when temperatures are topping out in the 60s to lower 70s.

Even warmer temperatures are ahead for the Easter weekend.
