The warmest weather so far this year is arriving just in time for the Easter weekend, forecasters say.
However, they can't rule out the possibility that a shower might not affect the area late in the day on Easter Sunday.
A large high pressure system is forecast to develop this week across the eastern United States. It will produce sunny skies with increasingly warmer temperatures, say forecasters.
Tuesday's high temperatures in the upper 60's will yield to highs in the middle 70's Wednesday.
The sunshine is forecast to continue Thursday through Saturday, with daily highs in the lower 80's. It hasn't reached 80 degrees in Charlotte since last Oct. 23.
Easter Sunday is forecast to dawn partly cloudy and mild, with sunrise temperatures in the middle 50's -- above average for that time of year. However, a cold front will be approaching the Carolinas by Sunday, so showers could spread into the region by late in the day.
The advance outlook for the week after Easter -- when most public school students in the area will be on spring break -- calls for mild temperatures, with daily highs in the 70's. Some rain is possible Monday.
