Severe weather risk for NC could bring thunderstorms, damaging winds

Temperatures are above normal this morning, showing 60s in some spots, with clear skies. But a line of showers moving in from our west will change that.
Counties south and east of the Triangle are under a marginal risk for severe weather. There’s a small chance for an isolated storm that could produce gusty winds. The highest chance for rain will come around noon and it will likely arrive earlier in the western counties.
