AUGUST 11TH 2026 : SEVERE WEATHER ALERT

⚠️ Severe Weather Alert

A few strong to severe thunderstorms will be possible late this afternoon into this evening across the western Carolinas and northeast Georgia.

Main Threat: Damaging wind gusts of up to 60 mph, with the greatest concern across the North Carolina mountains, foothills, and Piedmont.

Timing: 5:00 PM–Midnight

Strong winds may bring down trees, limbs, and power lines, and localized flooding from heavy rain is possible.

Please stay weather-aware this afternoon and evening, monitor local forecasts and alerts, and use caution when traveling.
