Severe Outlook

Isolated severe storms will be likely in these areas, but Northeast North Carolina and Southeast Virginia will have a higher risk of scattered severe storms.  This risk will also have a chance for tornadoes.

Severe Threats

The hail and damaging wind risk will cover the most area with today's forecast, but the area of North Carolina and Virginia will have the stronger storms with the possibility of rotation.  A 2% risk of tornadoes is in the forecast for cities like Norfolk and Nags Head.  Definitely be alert in these areas.
