First Alert Forecast: continued very warm and mainly dry for the rest of the Memorial Day weekend

WILMINGTON, N.C. (WECT) - Good to see you late on this Saturday! After a day filled with drought-denting showers and storms, stray showers remain possible although skies will mostly clear out heading into the remainder of your holiday weekend.

Your beach and pool plans are a go but don’t forget your sunscreen with very high UV index values.

Temperatures are expected to swell daily to the middle and upper 80s with some lower 90s possible as the calendar turns to June. Exercise caution in the lower and middle 70-degree water. Most days will boast a low to moderate risk of rip currents, with certain periods of the day, like low tides, being more pronounced. Rain and storm chances will be small through much of next week.
