A piedmont trough provided enough forcing for showers and thunderstorms to develop as the atmosphere became increasingly unstable across central North Carolina. One of these storms became severe, producing isolated wind damage. Additional storms developed ahead of a southward sinking cold front in the evening hours, slowly moving through the Triad. These storms produced flash flooding in Greensboro and some isolated wind damage in Davidson county.
