Severe Storms to Hit Carolinas Before Milder Memorial Day Weekend

In-Depth Analysis

A warm front lifting north through the Carolinas is creating conditions ripe for storm development. The combination of warm, humid air and upper-level energy could lead to strong to severe storms. The primary threats include damaging winds (up to 60 mph), one-inch hail, heavy rain, and frequent lightning. While the tornado threat is low, a quick spin-up, especially in the mountains, is possible.

After the storms clear, a cold front will bring much cooler, drier air. High temperatures on Thursday are expected to be in the middle 70s. Looking ahead to the Memorial Day weekend, the region can anticipate a cool, dry pattern for Friday and Saturday, with highs in the 70s and lows in the 50s. However, a warm front developing on Sunday could trigger a few thunderstorms.
