A mid-level disturbance tracked east across the Midwest and Ohio Valley during the afternoon and evening. This disturbance allowed a cold front across Missouri, Illinois, and Indiana to approach central North Carolina during the evening and overnight. Ahead of the front, strong surface heating with a moist atmosphere, as well as a Piedmont trough, allowed isolated to scattered thunderstorms to develop in the late afternoon and evening across the western Piedmont, tracking east into the Sandhills and Coastal Plain overnight. A few of the storms led to downed trees and power lines.
