A broken line of low-topped heavy rain showers and embedded thunderstorms developing ahead of a cold front moved from upstate South Carolina into the North Carolina foothills and western Piedmont shortly after sunrise, and moved across the area throughout the late morning. The showers and storms produced areas of strong-to-damaging wind gusts, while a couple of EF0 tornadoes also occurred.
