Nice Triad weather to start a warm week, Atlantic hurricane season is underway

5 days ago | wxii12.com | Brian Slocum

BUT WE GOT SOME SUNNY DAYS IN THE FORECAST AS WELL. SHOULD BE A NICE START TO THE WEEK FOR SURE, ESPECIALLY AFTER COMING OFF A CLOUDS THAT SEEMED HEAVY. SKIES THAT SEEM THREATENING EVEN A LITTLE HAZY. WE’VE GOT SOME LOWER HUMIDITY TO START THE WEEK AND TRENDING WARMER ONCE WE CLEAR A FEW CLOUDS THIS MORNING. BUT BY THE END OF THE WEEK, IT’S GOING TO FEEL LIKE SUMMER TEMPERATURES ARE GOING TO SPIKE AND COULD EVEN REACH THE LOFTIEST LEVELS WE’VE SEEN SO FAR THIS SEASON.

REPAIRED WITHOUT TOO MUCH TROUBLE. THE STORMS WERE A LITTLE ROUGH LAST NIGHT FOR SOME FOLKS. BRIAN. THAT STORM ACTUALLY BEGAN IN THE AFTERNOON. WE ACTUALLY GOT THIS THIS PHOTO FROM A VIEWER IN WILKES COUNTY. NOW IT LOOKS LIKE A TORNADO IS TOUCHING THE GROUND IN THAT LOCATION. I DON’T ACTUALLY BELIEVE IT IS BASED ON WHAT WE SAW ON RADAR, BUT IT CERTAINLY IS A A LOW, KIND OF OMINOUS LOOKING, LOW HANGING CLOUD FORMATION THAT CAME FROM THAT STORM.

IT IS ALMOST 545 ON YOUR THURSDAY. WE BEGIN WITH A LIVE LOOK FROM OUR STATION CAMERA OVERLOOKING WINSTON-SALEM THIS MORNING. 62 DEGREES, BRIAN SAID. WHERE IS THE SUN? YES. THAT IS THAT’S THE QUESTION THIS MORNING. YEAH. WE WANT TO KNOW. YOU TELL US THE SUN WILL RISE THERE SOMEWHERE, BUT WE JUST WON’T SEE IT. YEAH, IT’S IT’S PRETTY GRAY. WE’RE PRETTY OVERCAST OVER THE AREA THIS MORNING. IT’S MUGGIER. IT’S MORE HUMID. WE’RE STARTING TO RETURN TO WHAT, LATE MAY SHOULD FEEL LIKE.

I THINK I DO. PROBABLY DON’T. WE DO HAVE SOME LOW CLOUDS AND FOG OVER THE AREA THIS MORNING. JACKIE CURRENTLY ON KIND OF A COOL GLOW ON THE HORIZON. CITY LIGHTS. THAT LIGHTS BEING KIND OF JUST HELD TOWARD CLOSER TO THE GROUND. AND IT’S LOOKING AWFULLY NICE OUT THERE THIS MORNING. KIND OF PICTURESQUE, BUT WE’VE GOT SOME EARLY DRIZZLE AND FOG EARLY ON TODAY. AS WE GO INTO THE AFTERNOON, WE’LL START TO WARM THINGS UP A BIT MORE. HOW MUCH REMAINS TO BE SEEN? A NUMBER OF FACTORS HAVE TO PLAY OUT.

ALL RIGHT. GREAT FESTIVAL FORECAST. THE FESTIVAL BEGINS TODAY. PRETTY WARM AND HUMID ON THE ONSET AS WE GET INTO LATE SATURDAY AND SUNDAY, THE HUMIDITY IS GOING TO DROP. SO THAT KIND OF A WEEKEND PREVIEW. VERY WARM THOUGH FOR TODAY AND TOMORROW SUNDAY. COMFORTABLE AND DRY. WE’RE GOING TO BE IN THE 80S FOR A BIT AND RAIN CHANCES ARE GOING TO START TO INCREASE EARLY NEXT WEEK, AND THAT MAY BRING TEMPERATURES DOWN A LITTLE BIT STARTING WITH TODAY, THOUGH, A FEW STORMS MAY BRING SEVERE WEATHER.
