Scattered storms today.... much cooler this weekend...

Here is today's edition of the video. In it, I take a detailed look at today's severe weather threat as well as a weekend cool-down.



We remain in a warm and fairly muggy airmass this morning. As a potent storm system swings into the region today, we will likely see broken lines of showers and storms move through. The potential for damaging winds is fairly high today, and a couple of tornadoes can't be ruled out. Stay with News 14 Carolina on television for all of the latest information.

Up in the mountains, some upslope snow showers will kick in by tonight and continue into parts of tomorrow. Not a huge event, but the favored areas will get some snow on the ground.

It will be much cooler around here this weekend. Highs and lows will return to slightly below average levels.

It looks like our next significant system will then roll through around Wednesday next week.
