Asheville Local Frequency: Beautiful Saturday Ahead, Rain Expected Sunday

Good morning, this is your Asheville Local Frequency for Saturday, April 4th, 2026. We're starting this Saturday with mostly sunny skies and temperatures climbing into the upper seventies. It's a beautiful day to get outside, but keep an eye on the forecast as we move into next week. Rain is expected to roll in by Sunday evening, which will be welcome news for the region dealing with severe to extreme drought conditions. Speaking of getting outside, there's plenty to do today around Asheville. The WNC Nature Center is hosting their Egg-stravaganza from ten to noon with free admission. If you're looking for something more cultural, Music in the Mountains Day continues at the North Carolina Arboretum from ten in the morning until three in the afternoon, also free. Over at the Folk Art Center, they're offering Glass, Metal and Clay Day from ten in the morning until four in the afternoon. And here's something special: later this afternoon at Cane Creek Park, there's a ribbon cutting ceremony and sculpture unveiling celebrating the restoration of Cane Creek Fields. That starts at ten in the morning and runs until one in the afternoon. For our art enthusiasts, the Asheville Art Museum is hosting an Adult Studio session on Pysanky from one to four in the afternoon if you want to learn some traditional Ukrainian egg decorating. It's a small price at seventy-five dollars to get creative on a Saturday. We do want to mention that authorities in Buncombe County are investigating human remains discovered by hunters in Pisgah National Forest. The Buncombe County Sheriff's Office worked through the night on April second into the third to secure the scene. Investigators are working to identify the remains and determine the cause of death. Anyone with information is encouraged to contact the sheriff's office. On a more positive note, April is National Volunteer Month, and it's a perfect time to get involved in our community. Whether you're interested in environmental issues, animal welfare, or community services, there are plenty of opportunities to make a difference right here in Western North Carolina. Looking ahead to next week, we'll have some significant weather changes moving in. Rain is expected to intensify midweek with much cooler temperatures by Thursday. So if you're planning outdoor activities, this weekend is your window to enjoy the nicer weather. This has been Asheville Local Frequency. We'll see you tomorrow with more local updates.
