It's a foggy, unsettled Memorial Day in Raleigh, NC, and today's briefing has everything you need before stepping outside. Patchy fog is reducing visibility in spots this morning, so drivers should slow down and leave extra following distance. The fog is expected to lift as the day progresses, but don't count on a clear holiday — showers are possible before 8 a.m., and showers with thunderstorms become likely from mid-morning through early afternoon.

The chance of precipitation sits at 65%, with half to three-quarters of an inch of rain possible today. If you have a cookout or outdoor event planned for this afternoon, have a solid backup plan. Winds are light out of the south at 5 to 9 mph, but Raleigh's late-May humidity is already thick — the morning fog is proof of that. Tonight stays muggy with a low near 69°F and storms possible until around 1 a.m.

The week ahead stays active: Tuesday and Wednesday both bring showers and thunderstorms, with highs of 85°F and 87°F respectively and an 80% storm chance Wednesday. Thursday begins to ease, and Friday arrives as your reward — mostly sunny and near 81°F. No severe weather alerts are currently in effect; this is wet and unsettled, not dangerous.

For today, wear light layers you don't mind getting damp, keep an umbrella actually accessible, and factor in reduced visibility this morning and potentially slick roads by afternoon. Quick, practical, and under three minutes — your Raleigh daily weather briefing for Memorial Day.
