Storm chances for the weekend are not going to be widespread rain like we saw yesterday. These will be scattered and some of the latest data even suggests there may be fewer around for Saturday. Best advice, stay tuned and just be prepared for a storm if you have outdoor plans.

Heading out to the Bank to watch some Banana Ball tonight? You may want to take a poncho. There is a low risk for an isolated downpour this evening. Shouldn't last all that long IF it even moves into Uptown. Mainly just warm and muggy. Timing details ahead at noon on Channel 9. https://t.co/NdUFpQSzLx

Storm chances are going to try and get in the way of the @TheSavBananas games this weekend. Little risk for a pop up storm tonight, but higher storm chances arrive late day Saturday. Some storms (especially on Saturday evening) could be severe with a damaging wind threat. https://t.co/x9FSbOwYme

Heat index values for many will be in the lower 90s today. It's that time of the year folks. https://t.co/tGmdOKcCEj

Beautiful view of the approaching sunrise over Charlotte this morning. Much better start to the day, but it is muggy out there. https://t.co/dvUzPDrSIK

Watching for foggy conditions early this morning across the NC foothills. Be cautious heading out on parts of I-40 and highway 321. https://t.co/xRP1XxTFBx

Today's weather is definitely for the birds. https://t.co/acrjHt22ab

The rain is slowly starting to move off to the east (still quite heavy over northern Cabarrus and southern Rowan counties.) We'll dry out even more this afternoon. I'll have the latest timing ahead on Channel 9 at noon. https://t.co/iXQsicl9hA

The last time our area was completely drought free (including no "abnormally dry" conditions) was the week of October 22nd of last year. https://t.co/ChA05o7f11

This is going to be so fun this weekend. Hoping the storms hold off.

The field is set at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte for back to back sold out nights of Banana Ball! https://t.co/D7geSIjxfH

Alright BananaBall fans, get ready for some stormy weather this weekend. Not a huge risk for storms on Friday, but Saturday does hold a higher risk for stronger storms. This could mean some trouble for the games with the bigger risk on Saturday. https://t.co/cuV1vbdS1p

Today's activity is just nuisance rain, but bigger storm threats move in by Saturday. Damaging winds are the primary threat along with some large hail. Timing looks to be late day Saturday into Saturday evening. Be prepared if you have outdoor plans this weekend. https://t.co/w01ZeVuMKQ

Most areas in Charlotte have now had between 1/4-1/2" of rain already. Highest amounts are on the west side. Some parts of Gaston county are closing in on 1" already. More to come through the morning.

More rain is starting to spread into the region from the south. The steadiest rain is currently west of Charlotte over Gaston county. Additional showers are moving in from Lancaster and Chesterfield counties to the south. https://t.co/TrBoKVDU4u

It's going to be rainy for the first half of the day, then we dry out this afternoon. Limited late day sun will only allow temps to warm to the mid 70s. https://t.co/Kr5VKD4AhX
