WILMINGTON, N.C. (WECT) – Stay alert Monday, and be prepared to seek shelter for possible severe weather watches and warnings from the National Weather Service. Even in between scattered showers, storms, and squalls, your First Alert Forecast is bumpy with southwest winds regularly gusting to the 30s, 40s and 50s mph.
Monday night will have no further storm threat, thankfully, but winds will remain boisterous with cold temps pouring in from the northwest. Have your coat ready for 30s St. Patrick’s Day morning, keep a sweatshirt for 50s Tuesday afternoon, and prepare to give your sensitive plants a little extra TLC for lows approaching 30 Tuesday night.
Look for readings to rebound nicely toward Friday, the first day of spring…
