Cooler with lots of showers today

Above is today's edition of the Carolina Weather Video.

A cooler airmass is wedging into the area from the northeast today, and highs will only be in the 70s for most Piedmont locations. Showers with embedded storms will highlight the forecast. A few isolated severe storms are possible, and some additional flash flooding issues will be possible.

Shower chances continue tonight with lows in the low to mid 60s.

There is a big complex of storms in the Plains this morning, and it looks like that could track toward our area tomorrow, enhancing our chance of showers and storms. Highs tomorrow will range from the mid 70s to the lower 80s around the Piedmont.

It will get downright hot by the end of the week with highs up into the mid 90s Friday and Saturday.

Highs look to back down into the upper 80s again by early next week with a chance of PM storms returning.
