A record-breaking heat is expected to be followed by a brief cool down in the Carolinas, followed by showers due to a cold front bringing down the temperature. Temperatures are expected to drop significantly this weekend, with temperatures expected to reach near 80 degrees around Charlotte. The forecast also includes a potential fire danger risk due to gusty breezes and dry brush. Saturday will be breezy and cooler behind the looming cold front, with a high temperature of 62 degrees. Sunday will be more seasonal with forecast highs around 66 degrees, but a freeze is likely in the mountains and foothills early Sunday morning, and patchy frost is possible across the WBTV viewing area. The next few days will be mostly sunny, dry, and chilly, with high temperatures expected.
