Rain showers are expected today with highs around 84°F, and there's a risk of thunderstorms with pea-sized hail in the Burke Mountains and Avery County on Sunday. If you're planning outdoor activities like the kids' hike at Black Mountain Campground, keep an eye on the forecast as conditions could shift quickly. On a brighter note, the air quality is good today, and there are several community events happening including a food giveaway at Mt. Pleasant Food Pantry and news of new leadership at the Black Mountain Center for the Arts.
