CENTRAL NORTH CAROLINA — Showers and thunderstorms are expected to develop mainly across Central and Western North Carolina today after 2 to 3 PM and continue through the overnight hours as a cold front approaches and stalls across the state, bringing hit-or-miss storm coverage with gusty winds and bursts of heavy rainfall while the severe weather threat remains low but not zero.
North Carolina Weather Authority meteorologist Ethan confirms the storms will be garden-variety in nature for the most part, though an isolated strong storm with damaging winds cannot be completely ruled out across the region today.
