CHARLOTTE, N.C. (WBTV) - As high pressure builds to our west, warm and pleasant conditions will return to the Carolinas to kick off the week. By Thursday and Friday, chances for rain will return in forecast as we track a cold front moving through the mid-Mississippi Valley.

Chances for rain and all other precipitation types will wind down as the upper low moves up the east coast. Overnight, expect gradual clearing with lows ranging from the 20s in the mountains to 30s in Charlotte.

We will rebound nicely on Monday with mostly sunny skies and highs in the 60s. Tuesday also looks to be another gorgeous day with plenty of sunshine and highs in the low to mid 60s.

For the middle of the week, another system will bring chances for rain to our area on Wednesday night and Thursday. Highs on Wednesday will top out in the mid 60s. Thursday will also be warmer with chances for scattered showers and some rumbles of thunder; highs will climb into the lower 70s.
