First Alert Forecast: closely eyeing Humberto and some cooler weather

WILMINGTON, N.C. (WECT) - Good Tuesday to you! Thanks for checking in. Here in the First Alert Forecast Center, we will continue to monitor strong Hurricane Humberto through the day. The storm remains much more of a direct threat to Bermuda than the Carolinas but, still, until systems like Humberto are fully gone from our corner of the Atlantic, they are worth watching.

For the Cape Fear Region, Humberto will continue to be a swell and rip current generator for area beaches this Tuesday, so please use caution. A stray outer band shower may even rotate onshore. For the most part, though, you can expect sun intervals, fresh and purposeful north breezes of 10 to 20 mph, and afternoon high temperatures deep in the 80s.

Now, if you are a fall weather fan, you will love this: a steady diet of north breezes are likely to bring an even cooler, fresher vibe for Tuesday night through the end of the week! Right here, your complete seven-day forecast for Wilmington speaks to this coolness. And remember: you can grab a ten-day forecast tailored to your ZIP Code on your WECT Weather App!
