North Carolina Forecast: Season's coolest temperatures expected from Tuesday to Friday
SUMMARY: Meteorologist Chris Michaels reports that Comet A3 can be seen in the Western sky after sunset until October 24th. Observers may need night mode on their smartphones but some can see it with the naked eye from darker areas. Tonight, expect increased clouds and a chance of nighttime rain due to a cold front, with temperatures dropping to the 50s. Rain showers will be present during the morning commute, but skies will clear by midday. Wednesday’s high is forecasted at 59°F, the coolest since March. Expect even cooler temperatures on Thursday and Friday mornings, with the State Fair starting Thursday at 62°F.

The coolest air of the season (so far) is set to arrive from Tuesday through at least Friday morning. For Tuesday we can expect sunny skies in the morning, with increasing clouds in the afternoon, leading to mostly cloudy to overcast conditions. There’s a slight chance of spotty rain in our northwestern counties later in the day. High temperatures will be in the lower to mid-60s.
As Tuesday night approaches conditions will turn cloudy and cooler, with light rain likely later in the evening and continuing through daybreak on Wednesday.

Gov. Stein requests $19B in federal funding toward Helene disaster relief
SUMMARY: Hurricane Helen devastated Western North Carolina five months ago, causing over 100 deaths and $60 billion in damage. Recovery efforts continue under Governor Josh Stein, who recently requested $19 billion in federal aid, including funds for economic relief, housing repairs, infrastructure restoration, and disaster prevention. Local groups like the Appalachian Rebuild Project are actively addressing needs. The funds would support businesses, workers, and communities still reeling from the hurricane’s impact. Concerns about future funding cuts and the area’s historical neglect add urgency to the recovery. Stein’s request follows an earlier appeal for $1.1 billion in state funding.

Gov. Josh Stein is seeking $19 billion in federal funding toward Hurricane Helene recovery. Following a meeting with North Carolina’s US Sens. Thom Tillis and Ted Budd, his office announced the request, providing a 48-page breakdown of how the money would be spent.

Musk waves a chainsaw and charms conservatives talking up Trump’s cost-cutting efforts
SUMMARY: Elon Musk appeared at a conservative conference outside Washington, brandishing a chainsaw to symbolize his efforts to reduce the size of the federal government. He touted his role in government efficiency, particularly with cuts at the IRS, which has laid off 6,000 workers. Although officials claim tax return processing is unaffected, concerns about delays remain. Musk proposed a $5,000 taxpayer dividend funded by the cuts and claimed support from President Biden. He also faced accusations of ties to Russia, amid tensions over Ukraine and Trump’s strained relations with President Zelensky. Musk dismissed these claims and continued advocating for budget cuts.
