Heatwave Hits NC This Fourth | Fayetteville News

Central North Carolina is facing a brutal heatwave this Fourth of July weekend, with temperatures soaring to 103°F Saturday — breaking the two-year-old record — and a stifling heat index near 109°F. An Extreme Heat Warning is in effect until 8 PM Saturday, and triple-digit temps are expected to linger through Monday as a stubborn high-pressure system blocks any rain. While a stray shower might appear, it won’t cool things down much. Relief arrives by Tuesday and Wednesday, with highs dropping into the low 90s as the high-pressure system weakens. Stay hydrated, stay cool, and watch for updates. Listen in comfort:Get a discount on a Soli Pillow: http://solipillow.com/discount/dnn.
