Greensboro, NC – Rain is expected to fall steadily in the Triad by Sunday evening, with Greensboro seeing consistent showers beginning around 8 p.m.
The rain is expected to spread eastward across central North Carolina overnight, potentially affecting travel and outdoor activities throughout the state.
According to the US National Weather Service Raleigh, heavy rainfall could begin late Sunday night and last until Monday morning.
Rainfall in Durham, Raleigh, and Fayetteville may begin between 11 p.m. and midnight. This system increases the risk of low visibility and slick roads during peak late-night and early commute hours.
The rain’s timing coincides with weekend travel and school night routines, increasing the likelihood of slower traffic and hazardous conditions.
Residents are encouraged to check local forecasts and drive cautiously, especially in areas with poor drainage or a history of flooding during heavy rains.
Historically, North Carolina experiences variable weather in early April, but this widespread evening-to-morning system is expected to have a significant impact on the state’s central corridor.
Officials advise clearing storm drains and preparing for brief delays in Monday morning schedules.
