Stalled Front Brings A Few Thursday Showers
Unsettled pattern continues through the weekend
Discussion:
A cold front will continue to slowly meander south across the Foothills today before stalling over the Piedmont through Thursday. The severe weather risk on Wednesday will be marginal across most of the region with the risk focused on those south of I-85 on Thursday – mainly south and east of the WCCB Charlotte area. The weekend will feature a typical July pattern with scattered showers and storms.Forecast:
Tonight: A watch is not likely at this time, but we will continue to monitor scattered storms that have the potential to become severe. Damaging wind, localized flooding and frequent lightning are our primary threats. Lows near 70.
