BULLETIN
A significant thunderstorm system is moving into the Roaring River area Sunday with pea-sized hail and wind gusts up to 40 mph, so secure outdoor items and stay weather-aware. It's shaping up to be a hot day today with highs near 93 degrees as the region's intense heat dome finally begins to weaken, though severe storm risk is increasing as that system moves in. On a lighter note, Wilkes County is celebrating its 250th anniversary with a parade today.
