Warming trend continues...some shower/ storm chances

Here is today's edition of the Carolina Weather Video:



Highs today will warm well into the 60s across the region as our warming trend continues.

A little disturbance is rippling our way and will scoot through this evening. Some afternoon showers or storms look possible in the mountains spilling down into the foothills, then this evening, the chance of showers and storms moves through the piedmont.

The SPC has outlined the western Carolinas in a 'slight' risk of severe weather with this disturbance. While I don't think it's a huge severe weather threat, we will monitor it.

Highs tomorrow will surge to near-record levels across the region....well into the 70s for most east of the mountains.

Our next system then swings in late Thursday night into Friday. The GFS is quicker with the progression of this system than is the European, but for the time-being, I will still highlight Friday as the best time frame for shower and storm chances.

Chillier air arrvies behind this system for the weekend.

See the video for some thoughts on overrunning potential next week.
