High pressure will move offshore this week, keeping us warm and mainly dry. By Wednesday we'll have a chance or a few isolated t-showers through Friday. Overall rainfall forecast shows under 0.50" of rain for the Carolinas.

As expected, our front is more south today, keeping us dry. The mainly stalled front, will lift back to the north Thursday allowing for better chances for isolated to widely scattered showers and storms. But still a lot of dry times and sunshine.

Overall tonight through Sat AM we are looking at 0.25"-0.75" of rain area wide. But iso spots could see up to 1". Much needed rain &of course will help clear some pollen. It'll be a chilly rain with highs FRI in the 50s. But the way the atmosphere is set up, small hail &gusty winds will be possible.

Much needed rain continues over the Piedmont. Helps with the drought and the pollen 🙌.
Rain will continue most of the day until this evening. Very low risk for severe storms but I’ll be watching especially eastern NC this afternoon.

Check out this wedge we've got in the mountains/foothills. 60s to near 70 in the Triad, low/mid 70s south and east of the Triad. Warm front draped across the Triad is creating this temp gradient. We are also seeing dense fog in the foothills and mountains that'll be a problem overnight as well.

Very high pollen counts over the next several days. Despite taking my allergy meds and nose spray, I've started to really feel it today. Hopefully the meds work and it doesn't get too bad. Scattered t-shower chances increase Sunday. Hopefully we can wash some of this pollen away then.

Our Wed will be a bit interesting with a warm front pushing in from the south.This will bring mostly cloudy skies &some mist/drizzle especially NW of the Triad.
Ridge of High pressure builds in off the SE coast by THU into the weekend. This will bring a “heat wave” & keep most storms away until SUN

Still have some strong storms moving through the Carolinas, especially in SC but thankfully we have really escaped much of the severe wx in the Triad. Still can't rule out a few strong/severe storms through 8pm, but this is turning out to be mostly much needed rain ¬ a whole lot of severe wx.

Here is your 4:40pm 3-31-25 Radar update: Some good news for you, our first batch of storms have remained calm with some gust of 20-30mph &heavy downpours but nothing severe. The 2nd batch to the SW has very strong and severe wind gust with some rotation, but that looks to mainly stay to our south.

Here is your 10am severe weather update (3-31-25) SPC has trimmed back the level 3 of 5 to mainly the Piedmont. We’ll see a broken line of storms, some strong to severe after 2pm through about 8pmish. Damaging straight line winds and hail main threat. But an iso tornado can’t be ruled out.

There is still some minor uncertainty on clouds and morning rain. IF that happens, the severe weather threat will be lowered. But right now, indications are we see this line redeveloping in the afternoon from the Foothills to the Piedmont from Noon to 6pm and then into ENC from 4pm-9pm

Dry & warm Sat. Sun we are expecting sct showers.By Mon a strong front moves into the Carolinas. There is a "slight" risk, a level 2 out of 5 for strong to severe storms. Timing looks early to mid afternoon for the Piedmont. Straight line wind look to be the main threat, but an iso tornado possible

We desperately need some rain in the Carolinas and it looks like we'll get that Sunday and Monday. Much needed rain especially in WNC up to 1" possible with pockets of higher amounts. But this rain does come with a chance for strong to severe storms Monday. Stay Tuned.
