Maybe cut out of work a bit early and head to a pool or go take a walk at Lake Johnson. The sun sets around 8:30, so even if you can\u2019t cut out of work early you can still make it to your favorite spot in time to watch it go down. We recommend the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.lib.ncsu.edu\/huntlibrary\">NC State James B. Hunt Library<\/a>, or Boyland Bridge.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-2594 size-full\" src=\"#BLOGPATH#\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/ezgif.com-optimize-1.gif\" alt=\"Raleigh Forecast\" width=\"600\" height=\"338\" \/><\/p>\n<h3><strong>Saturday, July 8<sup>th<\/sup><\/strong><\/h3>\n<p>If you\u2019re lucky enough to have the day off on Saturday, we recommend spending it outside. It\u2019s going to be hot, at 96\u00b0, but there will be a few clouds in the sky for some periodic shade. Maybe take a blanket out to <a href=\"https:\/\/centennial.ncsu.edu\/lake-walking-trails.php\">Lake Raleigh<\/a> and lay out on the hill, or grab a few friends and check out the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.google.com\/webhp?sourceid=chrome-instant&amp;ion=1&amp;espv=2&amp;ie=UTF-8#q=eno%20river%20rock%20quarry\">Eno River Rock Quarry<\/a>.

Can you remember the last weekend in Raleigh it didn\u2019t rain a single time? Neither can we. Anyway, with a slightly-cooler high of 91\u00b0, Sunday will also be a good day to get outside. Although, if you spent all day in the sun on Saturday, you may need Sunday to recharge your batteries. But whether you decide to brave the great outdoors or stay in and watch Netflix, the weather isn\u2019t about to hold you back.<\/p>\n<p>Have fun this weekend and remember to be safe! Wear your sunscreen, tell someone where you\u2019re going, and drink lots of water.
