Derrah Getter's First Warning Forecast
A strong cold front will be bringing the threat of severe weather Sunday evening. We are under a level 2 out of 5 threat. Scattered strong to severe thunderstorms are expected. Damaging wind gusts up to 70 mph and heavy rainfall resulting in flooding will be possible. An isolated tornado can't be ruled out.
We will be dry for the majority of the day Sunday, but conditions will be windy and cloudy. Wind gusts around 40 mph will be likely throughout the afternoon. The severe weather window will be from 2 pm to 2 am. Because of the direction the storms will be moving in, it will be slow to exit. Some storms could linger into the early portion of the morning commute Monday along portions of the Outer Banks.
After the system moves through we get slightly milder Monday with highs in the low 60s. Brighter conditions return by the middle of next week.
Another cold front arrives Thursday evening bringing the slight chance for showers. We're not looking at anything severe Thursday. High temperatures will be slightly cooler behind the front in the mid 50s.
