Heatwave Alert with Severe Storm Risk | Fayetteville News

Central North Carolina braces for another scorching Saturday with temps hitting the upper 90s — but it’s not just heat to worry about. A dangerous cold front is rolling in, bringing risk of damaging winds and large hail, triggering a CBS 17 Alert Day. Friday already hit 99° at RDU, just shy of record heat, and while mornings may stay dry, storms could strike later. Officials are watching closely as the front clears by Sunday morning, ushering in cooler 80s. Labor Day brings relief with mid-to-upper 80s, but don’t relax — next week’s highs are likely to climb back into the low to mid-90s under dry, high-pressure skies.
