Some Quick Friday Morning Notes

With Jeff now off and enjoying some well-deserved vacation time, I will slide into the evening shift today. They folks in Raleigh will handle the midday package, but I will be in by early afternoon and will handle any issues that arise this afternoon and evening.

Today, set-up looks to favor scattered storms this afternoon and early evening. Some storms could be locally strong to severe, with damaging winds and small hail the primary threats.

However, the set-up for tomorrow is looking more and more favorbale for possibly more widespread severe weather. In fact, here is the SPC's outlook for Saturday...

Damaging winds will probably be the main threat tomorrow, but it is possible a couple of supercell storms could form as we head through the afternoon and into the evening.

As always, we will be right there on the air with you to walk you through the storms. Stay tunes to News 14 Carolina for all of the latest today and tomorrow.

Beryl scraped eastern Massachusettes this morning and is now heading to the Canadian maritimes. It is becoming a non-tropical low pressure area. Elsewhere, the tropics remain quiet.

Have a good day. I will be in the weather office this afternoon and will have some blog posts for you as we head through the day and weekend.

Stay tuned...
