The first day of September has risks of stormy weather in Bladen County according to Timothy Armstrong with the NOAA. The Storm Prediction Center is forecasting a slight risk of severe thunderstorms later today as a front stalls across southern North Carolina. Of particular interest with this event is the potential for isolated tornadoes. This risk will be highest near the location of the stalled front which may include parts of South Carolina’s Pee Dee Region and the inland portion of North Carolina’s Cape Fear region.
The best potential for severe thunderstorms should be during the mid to late afternoon hours inland, with activity moving eastward toward the coast this evening.
