Memorial Day Monday carries over overcast skies and light rain from the overnight for our morning hours. An area of low pressure across the Carolina Coastline keeps the gloomy chill around. Clouds will be awfully stubborn but we’ll manage a few peeks of sunshine at times. Light showers will roam first towards the southeast then drift back northeast later in the day. Much like the last few days, winds will pick up into the afternoon 10-15mph gusting as high as 25-30mph at times.
