It's been a long dry spell for the Cape Fear region. But, for the first time in months, it appears we may be getting back to normal. After this week's widespread rainfall, portions of the northern region are entirely clear of drought. Elsewhere, only southern Bladen and Robeson counties are still under Level 1 drought conditions. Things may further improve over the next couple of days as a series of low-pressure systems cross the Carolinas ahead of the weekend.

The region will see fluctuating temperatures, with highs in the 90s and lows potentially dropping to the upper 30s. A strong cold front is expected to bring widespread showers and a potential for heavy rainfall early next week. Despite the arrival of cooler air, frost is not anticipated in the coming days. This morning, for the first time since last September, Fayetteville didn't see the low side of 70 degrees.

This morning, for the first time since last September, Fayetteville didn't see the low side of 70 degrees. This crushed the standing "high-low" record for the date of 65 degrees, and odds are by the weekend we'll see the high side of 90. But if you think it's safe to pack up the blankets and break out the flip-flops, you haven't experienced spring in the Cape Fear region. The next several days will provide a grab-bag of weather that comes with spring around here.

Chick JacobsCorrespondentScattered showers are expected throughout the day on Sunday. Monday will see a cold front bring in potentially severe storms. The beginning of next week will have cooler temperatures in the low 70s. As the Cape Fear region shifts into high gear for pollen, it looks like any rain relief has been pushed back a bit. We'll still see showers to help knock down the choking yellow clouds, but the primary storms will hold off until Monday.

Welcome, sweet springtime, we greet thee with — sniffles. Spring arrived this morning in the Cape Fear region with an improved outlook for the winter-long drought. Increased rainfall has also kicked the regional pollen season into high gear. Oak, maple and juniper are cranking out pollen at season-high levels, with the yellow plague of pine sure to follow. On the bright side, much of the region has improved to only abnormally dry.
