TO TEST ONE DOLLARS. >> IF YOU HAD TO GO IN WITH SOUTH FOR DINNER IN RALEIGH, FINDING AN OPEN TABLE COULD BE A LITTLE MORE CHALLENGING THAN IF YOU CHOOSE A RESTAURANT AROUND MOORE SQUARE AND WRAL'S ALI INGERSOLL IS LOOKING AT HOW SOME AREAS IN THE CITY ARE SEEING HISTORIC SALES WHILE OTHERS CONTINUE TO STRUGGLE. >> MAY WAS A BIG MONTH FOR BUSINESSES IN DOWNTOWN RALEIGH. THIS SPRING WAS TREMENDOUS THAT STEVEN DEY, OWNER OF PLATES ON GLENWOOD SOUTH, THE RESTAURANT HAS BEEN AROUND IN THIS LOCATION FOR ALMOST A DECADE AND THEY'RE DOING 4 TIMES AS MUCH BUSINESS NOW AS THEY WERE IN THE BEGINNING, ACCORDING TODAY, JUST ENVISION THAT THE SIDEWALK WOULD BE FULL AND PEOPLE WOULD BE WALKING IN AND THE IT WOULD BE A REAL NEIGHBORHOOD RATHER THAN JUST THE PAST THROUGH FOR PEOPLE COMING FROM NORTH RALEIGH TO DOWNTOWN. >> WELL, THE DOWNTOWN RALEIGH ALLIANCE IS 2ND QUARTER REPORT SHOWS THAT MAY HAVE THE HIGHEST FOOD AND BEVERAGE SALES ON RECORD. THAT REALLY VARIES ON WHERE YOU ARE. THE GLENWOOD SOUTH AREAS REALLY DRIVING UP ALL THOSE NUMBERS. BUT THE DATA SHOWS THAT THE CORE HERE, THIS AREA IS STILL STRUGGLING. >> ON THE GOOD SIDE, WE SAW SOME GROWTH IN THE MOORE SQUARE DISTRICT, WHICH IS REALLY POSITIVE. AND THAT'S THE DISTRICT ALONG WITH A STABLE STREET DISTRICT THAT HAVE BEEN HIT REALLY HARD. BILL CAME WITH THE DOWNTOWN RALEIGH ALLIANCE SAYS THIS AREA IS RELIANT ON BUSINESS TRAFFIC, BOTH FROM LOCALS AND THOSE MAKING TRIPS TO THE AREA. >> HASN'T FULLY REBOUNDED. SO WHILE SALES HERE ARE UP 65% YEAR-OVER-YEAR, THEY'RE STILL LAGGING BEHIND WHERE THEY WERE BEFORE THE PANDEMIC. WE STILL SEE A DIFFERENCE AND WHERE RECOVERY IS HAPPENING. THE PACE IT'S RECOVERED OUT. >> BUSINESS OWNERS AROUND MOORE SQUARE TOLD ME THAT THEY'RE HOPING TO MEET WITH CITY LEADERS IN THE COMING WEEKS SO THEY CAN DISCUSS THAT RECOVERY AND THEY ARE LEFT BEHIND.

Hi, everyone. Meteorologist Anthony Baglione here in the Wral Severe Weather Center. Let's talk about our forecast as we head into the upcoming week. As we head past this weekend, we have a couple of things there, what we're tracking as far as sunshine returning. So it's been definitely kind of a cloudy weekend for most of us on the whole. Should be a very pleasant start to the week though. Some sunshine getting through warmer temperatures, nineties by the time we get into our Thursday and then a holiday weekend, rain chances very early starting on, let's say Thursday, Friday, Saturday, Sunday. We're just tracking the potential for some rain heading into the holiday weekend. I'll talk about that here in just a second. Otherwise, let's talk about what we're looking at here. Future cast wise, there could be a spotty Sprinkle as we get into tonight for the most part though. Uh, just about everyone's quiet. Something to keep in mind though. There could be some fog out there for your Monday morning commute. We should start off with a little bit of fog. We'll start off with partly cloudy skies and really keep a mix of sun and clouds through the majority of the day. It'll be dry though to start the week and actually a pretty good day. If you want to just enjoy out on the patio or something, it should be fine. Maybe firing up the grill tomorrow night. Sounds kind of good. We go to 80 degrees for a high temperature tomorrow. 76 at seven o'clock. And then we start to see a warm up once again. 84 on Tuesday, 88 on Wednesday, we should hit 91 by the time we get to our Thursday 86 on Friday. And I know a lot of times when that heat kind of comes back into the forecast that begs the question, is it gonna feel gross as you walk outside? I really don't think it will the next couple of days it does get back in the humid kind of category though for us Thursday, Friday, we're not quite too tropical where we could be during the summertime months. But I think for our Monday, Tuesday, even into Wednesday, it should feel fine as you're headed out. Just a little bit of humidity. There's what we're looking at here the next seven days. 80 on our Monday, 84 on Tuesday, we go to 88 Wednesday 91 Thursday. You see those rain chances starting to come in there. Thursday, Thursday night, a stray shower or a thunderstorm. The best chances at the this point look to come in Friday night, Saturday during the morning, we may get a break. Saturday afternoon, Sunday afternoon doesn't look like total drenching conditions, but just enough where if you're traveling, you may want to keep an eye on the forecast here with a couple of chances of showers and storms.
