Tulsa Sets 226-Day Record; Carolinas Expect Warmup

The Carolinas are entering a stretch of unseasonably warm, mostly dry weather after cooler conditions at the start of November. Charlotte highs are forecast to rise from the upper 60s Sunday to the mid-70s by midweek, while Raleigh could approach 80 degrees Wednesday and Thursday. Rain chances increase late Wednesday into Thursday as a front moves through, with showers likely but widespread severe storms not expected; warm temperatures are forecast to linger into Friday.
