THE EVENING, RIGHT? I KNOW. JUST POUNDING RAIN AND THE DRIVING WINDS. I MEAN, IT WASN’T TENSE. SO WE ARE GRATEFUL TO BE DONE WITH THAT. A LOT OF FOLKS ARE GOING TO BE PICKING UP TREE LIMBS TOMORROW MORNING. THOSE BEAUTIFUL BLOOMS ON SOME OF OUR TULIP POPLAR TREES THAT ARE OUT THERE. AND THE BRADFORD PEAR STARTING TO JUST COAT THE ROADS. I THINK BY EARLY TOMORROW MORNING, BECAUSE IT’S JUST A MESSY SALE. RIGHT NOW. YOU HAD FOG THROUGHOUT MUCH OF THE DAY AND THEN YOU FINALLY WARMED UP AND SAW THOSE SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ROLL THROUGH. SO TAKING DOWN SOME TREE LIMBS ALSO CAUSING SOME SPORADIC POWER OUTAGES FOR US, TOO. BEAUTIFUL, THOUGH, NOW THAT WE ARE BEGINNING TO SEE THAT CLEARING, IT WILL BE COOLER AND IT’S GOING TO BE A BIT BLUSTERY TO START OUR MORNING AS WINDS CONTINUE TO INCREASE AS OUR COLD FRONT ROLLS THROUGH. YOU’RE SEEING THOSE CHILLY CONDITIONS HERE UP IN WALNUT COVE, REIDSVILLE. YOU REALLY HAVEN’T SEEN THAT WARM FRONT LIFT NORTH. YOU’VE BEEN KIND OF WEDGED IN MOST OF THE DAY. THOSE SCATTERED SHOWERS, THOUGH, EXITING FROM ASHEBORO THROUGH BURLINGTON. SO WE’RE STARTING TO DRY OUT EVERYWHERE. NOTICE THE MOISTURE, JUST GOOD BIT OF IT ROLLING THROUGH AS THOSE STORMS WERE AT THEIR WORST, ANYWHERE FROM 60 TO 70 MILE AN HOUR SPEEDS FOR THOSE STORMS. THE WINDS TO COMING DOWN WITH SOME 40, 35 MILE AN HOUR GUSTS REPORTED. ALSO BY RYAN OUT IN PORT TOWN. AND YOU COULD SEE TH DRY AIR, ALL THAT ORANGE, THAT’S WHERE THE DRY AIR IS MOVING IN. SO WE KNOW IT’S GOING TO BE A LITTLE BIT COOLER. AND THROUGH THE MID-LEVELS, WE HAVE THAT NICE DRY AIR, MEANING SUNSHINE FOR US TOMORROW. YOU’VE GOT HIGH WIND CONCERNS FOR JEFFERSON SPADA THROUGH BOONE. THESE ARE CONCERNS OF 50 TO 60 MILES AN HOUR, NOT ONLY ALONG THE RIDGES, BUT SOME OF THE MOUNTAIN PASSES, TOO. CURRENTLY, WE DON’T HAVE THE WINDS INTENSIFYING JUST YET, BUT 33 MILE AN HOUR GUSTS AND BEECH MOUNTAIN TO 24 AND SPARTA, IT’S GOING TO FEEL MUCH COOLER AS THOSE TEMPERATURES BEGIN TO DROP TOWARD MORNING. WE’VE GOT UPPER THIRTIES TO LOW FORTIES OUT THERE AND YOU’RE LOOKING AT SUSTAINED WINDS RIGHT NOW. NOT SO BAD, 12 MILES AN HOUR AND GREENSBORO STILL DEALING WITH 60 MILES AN HOUR IN BURLINGTON. AND THOSE WILL ALSO START TO COME UP AS WE SEE THAT FRONT PUSH A LITTLE BIT FARTHER TO THE EAST. NOW, WE’RE THROUGH THE WORST OF IT WITH SEVERE WEATHER. BUT A REMINDER THAT SOME OF THESE TREE LIMBS COULD STILL COME DOWN. WE’VE GOT VERY UNSTABLE SOIL CONDITIONS WHERE WE’VE SEEN 1 TO 2 INCHES OUT IN THE MOUNTAINS. SO MORE SPORADIC OUTAGES AND TREES COULD ALSO CAUSE SOME OF THOSE LINES TO COME DOWN. HERE’S THE WINDS IN THE MID-LEVELS. PRETTY INTENSE WIND STILL OVERHEAD RIGHT NOW. AND WE’RE GOING TO START TO SEE THOSE LEVEL UP OVERNIGHT AND THEN EXIT BY MIDDLE OF THE DAY. SO YOU’RE WATCHING FOR THAT HIGH WIND CONCERN STARTS TO DROP OFF BY TONIGHT. ALL RIGHT. RAINFALL TOTALS PRETTY DECENT OUT THERE FOR WINSTON-SALEM. MORE THAN A HALF AN INCH. YOU HAD A LITTLE LESS TO THE EAST, BUT WE MAY SEE SOME OF THOSE TOTALS COME UP AS WE JUST HAVE SEEN THOSE SHOWERS. EXIT AT LEAST 407 INCH AND GREENSBORO. WE’VE GOT MORE, THOUGH, THERE NOW THAT WE KNOW OF 57 DEGREES. YOUR AVERAGE HIGH THIS TIME OF THE YEAR. YOU DID MAKE IT INTO THE SIXTIES JUST WITHIN THE LAST COUPLE OF HOURS FOR FOLKS IN GREENSBORO. TOMORROW BACK INTO THE SIXTIES, IF WE’RE LUCKY. NOW WE’VE GOT THAT COOLER AIR MASS ROLLING IN. BUT WE ALSO HAVE A WEST NORTHWESTERLY BREEZE THAT’S TYPICALLY A WARMER BREEZE FOR. SO IT SHOULD TAKE US TO 64. TEMPERATURES, THOUGH, THROUGHOUT THE MORNING HOURS ARE GOING TO FEEL LITTLE UNCOMFORTABLE IN THOSE FIFTIES WITH WINDS THAT WILL MAKE YOU FEEL A BIT BLUSTERY. 46 DEGREES IN THE FOOTHILLS WITH HIGHS AT 61. LOTS OF GOOD SUNSHINE, NOT QUITE AS GUSTY THERE, BUT IN THE MOUNTAINS. WE KEEP YOUR ALERT ON FOR EARLY MORNING WITH TEMPERATURES THAT ARE AT 39, WARMING TO 51. IT’S COOL. AND AGAIN, GUSTY AT ABOUT 20 TO 25 MILES AN HOUR. BUT YOU NEED TO SEE THAT WARM FRONT LIFT NORTH NOW AND THAT COLD FRONT WILL BE MOVING IN SO EARLY MORNING. THOSE ARE THE WINDS FOR YOU IN THE MOUNTAINS AGAIN. BUT SUNSHINE PREVAILS AND WE’LL EXPECT TO SEE A LOT OF GOOD SUNSHINE LASTING ALL THE WAY THROUGH THE TRIAD. WINDS BACK OFF BY THREE OR 4:00 IN THE AFTERNOON. AND WE LOOK AHEAD OVER THE NEXT COUPLE OF WEEKS FROM THE 11TH THROUGH THE 17TH, GETTING YOU INTO THE FOLLOWING WEEK, YOU’RE GOING TO SEE DRY CONDITIONS LIKELY TO NEAR NORMAL CONDITIONS. AND IT’S A COLD AIR THAT LOOKS TO SET UP FOR SO GOOD OPPORTUNITIES FOR THAT. CHANCES OF SEEING SOME COLDER AIR ANYWHERE FROM 60 TO 70% FOR FOR BELOW NORMAL TEMPERATURES. SO DEFINITELY A COOL STRETCH. AND RIGHT NOW, WE’RE LOOKING FORWARD TO SOME WARMER TEMPERATURES. UPPER 62, LOW SEVENTIES HEADING INTO TUESDAY IN THE FOOTHILLS, SOME UPPER SIXTIES THERE AND IN THE MOUNTAINS. WE SHOULD GET YOU BACK TO NEAR 60 DEGREES BY TUESDAY. BUT IT IS COOLER TO START YOUR WEEKEND THERE. SUNSHINE, DRIER CONDITIONS, 73 ON TUESDAY. NICE WARM DAY FOLLOWED BY CHILLY AIR TO END NEXT WEEK. WE’LL BE BACK WITH MORE AFTER
