WALKING
WALKING OUT TO THE BOAT, ENJOYING THE BREEZE OUT THERE. LARRY?
>> BE A NICE TIME TO BE RIGHT
THERE ON THE LAKE.
POOL OR WHATEVER, IT'S GOOD,
BECAUSE THE HEAT IS ON AGAIN
TODAY.
GOOD MORNING.
AS WE TAKE A LOOK, WE'LL SHOW
YOU WHAT'S HAPPENING OUT THERE
AT THE MOMENT, JUST FAIR
WEATHER CLOUDS.
ROCK HILL, 85 DEGREES AND 84
FOR SALISBURY.
BOONE AND JEFFERSON BOTH AT 73,
86 IN THE QUEEN CITY ALREADY,
90 DOWN IN CHERAW.
WE MADE IT TO 89 YESTERDAY AND
WE'RE IN THE LOW 90s THIS
AFTERNOON.
WITH THE HUMIDITY AND THE DEW
POINT, IT WILL FEEL LIKE ABOUT
100 DEGREES OUT THERE.
NOT A LOT HAPPENING ON THE
SATELLITE AND RADAR.
WE MAY SEE A FEW AREAS OF STORM
ACTIVITY THIS AFTERNOON, 30% TO
40% COVERAGE.
THE CONCENTRATION OF SEVERE
WEATHER IS BACK TO THE WEST.
YOU CAN SEE FROM THE TRIANGLE,
ALL THE WAY NORTH OF THERE,
COULD HAVE A FEW ISOLATED
STORMS.
AND LET'S TALK ABOUT THE
TROPICS, TROPICAL STORM ISAIAS
WHICH IS NOW A HURRICANE.
THIS IS ABOUT 300 MILES
SOUTHEAST OF NASSAU IN THE
BAHAMAS.
WE HAVE WATCHES AND WARNINGS IN
EFFECT ALREADY FOR FLORIDA
HERE, THE EAST COAST FROM MIAMI
UP TO JUST SOUTH OF DAYTONA
BEACH, AND THEY HAVE A
HURRICANE WATCH IN EFFECT FOR
THAT AREA.
WINDS SUSTAINED AT 75, GUSTING
TO 90 MILES AN HOUR, MOVING
NORTHWEST ABOUT 16 MILES AN
HOUR.
WE'LL TAKE YOU ACROSS THE
BAHAMAS.
BY SATURDAY NIGHT, WINDS 90
MILES AN HOUR.
YOU CAN SEE THE CONE OF
UNCERTAINTY IS FARTHER OUT,
MAYBE TOWARDS MIAMI.
THE HURRICANE CENTER TAKES A
TRACK JUST EAST OF MIAMI.
AS IT HEADS INTO THE AREA IN
THE SOUTHEAST ON MONDAY
MORNING, WINDS STILL 75 MILES
AN HOUR, HURRICANE STRENGTH,
AND THAT'S SOUTH OF CHARLESTON.
IT WILL TAKE A TRACK MOVING
OVER THE SOUTH-FACING BEACHES
THERE, HITTING MAYBE
WILMINGTON, THEN EVENTUALLY IN
THE NORTHEASTERN CORNER OF
NORTH CAROLINA POSSIBLY.
THAT WOULD BE TUESDAY MORNING
8:00 A.M.
WITH WINDS OF 65 MILES AN HOUR.
NOTICE HOW FAR BACK WEST THE
CONE TAKES IT.
THAT'S OVER TOWARDS ROCKINGHAM.
FARTHER OUT IN THE ATLANTIC
OCEAN, THIS WILL EVENTUALLY END
UP OFF THE COAST OF NEW ENGLAND
BY NEXT WEEK.
40-MILE-AN-HOUR WINDS FROM THE
OUTER BANKS DOWN TO MYRTLE
BEACH.
THERE'S ABOUT A 30% CHANCE IN
THAT AREA.
BACK IN THE CHARLOTTE AREA, AS
FAR AS ANY TROPICAL STORM FORCE
WINDS, ABOUT A 5% CHANCE OF
THAT.
I THINK THE SEVERE WEATHER
THREAT IS REALLY FROM
WILMINGTON ALL THE WAY TOWARD
THE OUTER BANKS.
YOU CAN SEE THIS TRACKING
ACROSS AREAS AS FAR BACK TO THE
RALEIGH AREA THEN HEADING UP
THE EAST COAST.
TEMPERATURES TODAY WILL BE HOT
AND HUMID, HIGHS MAINLY IN THE
LOW 90s.
SOME SPOTS COULD HIT THE MID-
90s.
WE HAVE A CHANCE OF A COUPLE
POPUP THUNDERSTORMS.
LOOKING AHEAD TO THIS UPCOMING
WEEKEND, SATURDAY AND SUNDAY
IT'S HOT AND HUMID.
I THINK FOR THE WEEKEND OUTDOOR
ACTIVITIES, LATE AFTERNOON, YOU
GET THE POPUP THUNDERSTORMS.
NEXT WEEK A BETTER CHANCE OF
SHOWERS AND STORMS, INCLUDING
MONDAY, TUESDAY AND WEDNESDAY.
IF WE SEE ANY THREAT AT ALL, IT
COULD BE LATE MONDAY INTO
TUESDAY, GUSTY WINDS AND
SCATTERED SHOWERS OUT THERE.
BUT MONDAY, TUESDAY AND
WEDNESDAY WE HAVE HIGHS IN THE
