Flood Advisory for portions of Mecklenburg & Union: Minor flooding in low-lying and flood prone areas as 1-2 inches of rain comes down! Watch for a rise in streams/creeks/rivers.

It is pouring outside on this Saturday morning! As we end out the month of May, this will be the first month since last August to feature above average rainfall.

[Bekah Birdsall @WeatherBBird]

While we have seen several inches of rain since Thursday, it's a step in the right direction for the drought, but we still need more!

[Bekah Birdsall @WeatherBBird]

Today will be the wettest day out of the weekend with scattered showers and t-storms all day... Sunday & Monday will bring a warm up with afternoon and evening chance of t-storms! MORE: https://t.co/e2bLyfnmws

Enjoy the more mild days through Friday before a heat wave builds beginning Saturday!

Last day of the Truist Championship will be warm and sunny! If you forget the SPF, they have sunscreen stations ♨

[Truist Championship @TruistChamp]

Due to dangerous weather in the area, the start of the third round of the Truist Championship is delayed.

6:30 AM UPDATE: I-77 N near Woodlawn Rd is seeing heavy delays due to a crash blocking at least one lane of traffic.

@RoosterA1A The mountains are directly in our viewing area while the beach is not! If something big is happening on the coast, we certainly try and show it though. 👍

[Bekah Birdsall @WeatherBBird]

Still the #1 driest start to the year after all the rain chances this week... another round looks to come next Thursday! In the meantime, enjoy the sunny weather. MORE: https://t.co/e2bLyfnmws

Happy Kentucky Derby Eve! @LisaWashing brought us her special hats and fascinators which some of us wear better than others LOL... We've got rain on the way for those watch parties tomorrow. MORE: https://t.co/e2bLyfnmws

There were *NO* tornado warnings in North Carolina during April.

Typically, this is one of our busiest months for severe weather.

More surprisingly, this is the second year in a row. 2025 also had no tornado warnings in the state.

A portion of Mecklenburg county is now under an exceptional drought... About 5% of South Carolina has been added to exceptional as well. Not great news!

[Bekah Birdsall @WeatherBBird]

Showers and t-storms holding together strong while making it's way over to Charlotte through the late morning... gusty winds, lightning, and brief heavy downpours are expected across the metro through 10 AM.

[Bekah Birdsall @WeatherBBird]

Well round 1 of rain today was underwhelming... we're not done yet though with afternoon/evening t-storms developing as a front moves in. Hail, damaging winds, and lightning will be the primary concerns so keep an eye out if you're headed to Bruno Mars tonight!

[Bekah Birdsall @WeatherBBird]

A few rounds of wet weather will move in starting Tuesday morning... this one will be super isolated with more widespread, heavier rain at times for Wednesday. MORE: https://t.co/e2bLyfnmws

[Bekah Birdsall @WeatherBBird]

It's been nearly 3 weeks since Charlotte has seen *measurable rain... scattered showers and an isolated t-storm will be possible this afternoon and evening. Drier and cooler for Sunday!
