FORECAST:
- We hit 101 degrees in Charlotte on Friday, breaking a record set back in 1954.
- Some scattered storms rolled in Friday evening.
- We are also looking at numerous rain chances over the next six to 10 days. Pretty much every day, we will have a chance for storms and slow-moving showers. With so much humidity in place, these showers and storms will be efficient rainmakers.
- This won’t be a washout by any means, but we need all the rain we can get.
- Storms Friday and Saturday will not beat the heat as we’ll be in the mid-90s both days.

Blistering hot today with a record high of 101 degrees! We haven’t hit 100 or higher in Charlotte since June 22nd, 2002 (101). Shockingly our hottest temp last July was only 95 degrees!
