Dangerous heat moves in Wednesday

It's another warm and sticky night across the region, with temperatures only slipping into the lower 70s by daybreak. A few clouds will drift overhead, but all in all we'll stay rain free. The real change arrives Wednesday as a large area of high pressure strengthens over the Southeast. That weather pattern acts like a lid on the atmosphere, allowing temperatures to climb even higher. Many locations will reach the upper 90s, with little relief from the sunshine. Outside of a few storms over the mountains, rain will be hard to come by.

Scores Of North Carolina Sea Turtles Have Died After Being Stunned By Frigid Temperatures

Officials say scores of sea turtles stunned by cold temperatures along the North Carolina coast have died. The North Carolina State University Center for Marine Sciences and Technology says it took in 109 cold-stunned sea turtles from Cape Lookout on Sunday. Officials say the frigid temperatures leave the cold-blooded reptiles lethargic, leaving them vulnerable to being carried by wind to the shorelines.
