WILMINGTON, N.C. (WECT) - Enjoy a mostly to partly sunny Sunday with seasonable high temperatures in the lower and middle 80s. A disturbance could drop a shower or storm in Sunday night - especially but not exclusively north of Wilmington - so don’t be shocked if you catch one. Otherwise, into Monday: expect pleasant spring to summer conditions with a fleeting shower chance, lots of sunshine, morning temperatures in the 60s, and afternoon highs in the 80s.

WILMINGTON, N.C. (WECT) - Your First Alert Forecast carries additional medium chances for mainly garden variety showers and storms; be leery of isolated flooding and severe weather under only the heaviest cells. Despite the unsettled period, temperatures are likely to fight their way to over 80 for the remainder of the week; even brighter skies and lower rain chances of 20% for Saturday, May 31 and 10% for Sunday, June 1 should solidify this warmth.
