The above video is our WITN+ livestream and may not reflect the content in this story. We’ll see another front move into the East late Wednesday. The strength of this front will be enough to trigger severe thunderstorm activity later in the day. With highs in the low 90s and high humidity, our atmosphere will be primed for the severe potential, making Wednesday a First Alert Weather Day.

Storms will continue to flow over the East from the north and west as the cold front we’ve been tracking slowly moves in from Virginia. The threat of severe weather will fade after 9 p.m. as the atmosphere cools and stabilizes under the rain. Showers and downpours will persist through the early hours of Monday morning. We may see a brief pause in the rain mid-morning on Monday, however it will be short lived as more rain develops after lunch.

Showers and storms will move into Eastern NC Sunday afternoon. With the threat of severe storms rising through the afternoon, Sunday will be a First Alert Weather Day. The first half of the day could see one or two isolated showers. Scattered thunderstorms will develop between noon and 3 p.m. before the cold front arrives. The front will only help the storms maintain strength, keeping the threat of severe weather present until 11 p.m. - midnight. Temperatures will climb to the low 90s.
