A handful of my students from UNC Chapel Hill (and a welcome NC State student!) showed up to the studio this morning before 7:30 a.m. voluntarily! Clearly they’re going to be fine in this industry. 😂👏
I truly love getting to show the next generation the behind-the-scenes of what you see on TV. 🤍

“I really, really hope I’m wrong.” ⬅️ When I heard my meteorologist colleague say that to our team this morning, my heart sank.
My dear NC, I need you to take this one seriously. 🌩️
Monday is shaping up to be a significant severe weather day for our state, and our meteorologists are paying close attention. Here’s what you need to know:
⚠️ North Carolina is at a Level 4 out of 5 for severe weather potential.
🌪️ Tornadoes — including strong, long-lived ones — are possible, especially if supercell storms develop ahead of the main line.
💨 Wind gusts over 75 mph are possible.
🌨️ Hail up to 2 inches in diameter is possible.
Storms could arrive in waves starting late Sunday night into early Monday morning, with the main threat ramping up Monday afternoon and evening.
Please do these things before you go to bed tonight:
-Charge your phone
-Download the Spectrum News app, so you get real-time, location-focused weather alerts straight to your phone (make sure your notifications are on!)
-Know where you’ll shelter. Lowest floor of your building, away from windows. Basements are best.
-This is NOT a storm to sleep through. Make sure you have multiple ways to receive warnings, day or night.
Spectrum News 1 North Carolina will have full coverage all day Monday. Stay close, stay safe and please check on your neighbors. 💙
