Friday will be even hotter, with highs expected to be anywhere from 5 to 10 degrees above normal. Afternoon Heat Index of 101 to 106 is expected across much of the Piedmont and foothills.
Due mainly to hot and humid weather causing high concentrations of ozone, Code Orange Air Quality Action Days are in effect for several counties in NC and SC on Friday, July 17.
Strong to severe storms are possible this weekend, mainly during the afternoon and evening hours. Damaging winds are the main hazard with any severe storms that develop.
