Apex North Carolina News and Info Daily

Apex, let’s get you caught up on the last 24 hours.

According to Time and Date’s Apex tracking, listeners woke up to a crisp, seasonally chilly morning with temperatures in the 40s climbing toward the low 50s by midday, under mostly cloudy skies and a light breeze around 5 to 10 miles per hour. That chill is setting the stage for a classic small‑town holiday weekend.

Weather Underground reports that air quality over Apex is sitting in the good to low‑moderate range for most of the day, with fine particle pollution comfortably below levels of concern for most healthy adults. For allergy‑sensitive listeners, Weather Underground’s health outlook notes tree and grass pollen staying low while weed and mold spores hover in the low‑to‑moderate band, enough to bother the sneeze‑prone but not enough to ruin outdoor plans.

On the community front, the Assembly North Carolina’s Cary, Apex, and Morrisville holiday guide says Apex is leaning fully into its holiday identity as the Peak of Good Living. The Snowman Stroll on Salem is now in full swing downtown, with passports available at the Apex Welcome Center and at the tree lighting, letting listeners collect stickers from shops and events and turn them in for raffle entries. That same guide highlights the Apex Holiday Tour of Lights, beginning this evening and running nightly through December 31, with a map of decked‑out homes opening just in time for folks to cruise the neighborhoods after dark.

The star of tonight’s show is the Apex Rotary Christmas Parade. Visit Raleigh and the Assembly report the only nighttime holiday parade in Wake County steps off at 5 p.m., rolling from Apex Peakway and Ambergate Station down Salem Street to Moore Street. The Apex Rotary Club and Chamber of Commerce note that proceeds benefit local charities, especially Western Wake Crisis Ministry, and new this year are bleachers in front of Apex Fire Station 1, first come, first served, no standing allowed. Parade rules also now bar early chair setups before 10 p.m. the night before, so expect fairer sightlines along the route.

High school football and basketball schedules roll on across Wake County this weekend, but as of this recording, no marquee Apex‑area scores have been finalized in the past 24 hours; local outlets and school sites will post those updates later today once games tip off and kick off.

Cold air, clear enough skies, and manageable pollen and air quality mean tonight should feel almost tailor‑made for bundling up, grabbing a hot cocoa, and heading downtown to watch bands, floats, and light‑wrapped trucks wind through historic Apex.

Good morning Apex! It's Wednesday, December 3rd, 2025, and we've got some great news about your weather today. According to weather forecasts for the area, you're looking at mostly sunny skies with a high near 48 degrees and calm winds. That's perfect weather if you've got any outdoor plans this afternoon. Tonight will be mostly clear with a low around 30 degrees, so you might want to grab a light jacket if you're heading out after sunset.

If you're traveling around town, keep an eye out for a road maintenance issue on US-1 near Apex where the shoulder is currently closed. DriveNC reports this started early this morning at 5 AM, so if you're commuting through that area, you may want to use an alternate route.

Looking ahead to the rest of the week, Thursday is shaping up to be partly sunny with temperatures climbing to around 53 degrees, which is nice for early December. But listeners, brace yourselves because Friday is bringing rain to the forecast. Rain is likely to move in mainly after 1 PM with a 60 percent chance of precipitation during the day, and that rain continues into Friday night with a 70 percent chance. So if you've got outdoor activities planned, Friday might not be your day.

The weekend looks a bit mixed with Saturday showing a chance of rain but mostly cloudy skies and a high near 50 degrees. Sunday bounces back with mostly sunny conditions and a high around 51 degrees, so that could be a great day to get outside before the next weather system moves in.

The UV index today is sitting at 3, which is moderate, so if you're planning to spend time outdoors, a little sunscreen wouldn't hurt even on these cooler December days. The air quality looks good as well, so it's a great day to get outside and enjoy what North Carolina has to offer.

Apex is rolling into Wednesday, November 26, with sunshine and crisp, cool air. According to the Time and Date hourly forecast, listeners have woken up to a bright morning near 60 degrees, and the afternoon promises highs reaching around 76 degrees with clear skies and absolutely no rain in sight. By evening, temperatures will dip into the mid-60s, so grab a light jacket if you’re headed out after sunset. If you have allergies, Weather Underground reports Apex’s pollen levels are notably low right now, and the air quality index sits solidly in the good zone. That means it’s a perfect window for walking the Greenways or kicking a soccer ball in the park.

Even bigger news for local growth: Robin MacLennan from NC Construction News announced that construction officially began yesterday on Summit House, the very first residential building in Apex's Veridea Community.

Listeners waking up in Apex on Monday, November 24 can expect a pleasant fall morning with mostly sunny skies, cooler temperatures, and highs reaching the low 60s. Tonight will dip down into the 40s, so jackets are a good idea as you head out for early errands or the morning commute. According to ABC11, clouds start rolling in on Monday night, and Tuesday may bring a few spotty showers and mild conditions, with highs near 70 before a cold front swoops in later this week.

Local high school sports have been buzzing. Apex High's basketball teams hosted Cary in a spirited cross-town rivalry game Sunday night.

Donovan’s Dish offers Southern classics, but listeners should act fast—Monday is the last day to order from many spots like Asali Desserts Café and Utica Bakery, popular for their cheesecakes and pastries. Utica Bakery’s food truck will be serving up sweet treats on Upchurch Street all day Wednesday.

Air quality is in the moderate range across Western Wake, with pollen counts staying low thanks to recent cool temperatures and brisk breezes. Residents with allergies should be breathing easy as we start the workweek. No major advisory for pollutants or particulates is in effect today.
