As extreme temps drive unusually high energy demand across the Carolinas we have begun short, temporary power outages. These emergency outages are necessary to protect the energy grid against longer, more widespread outages. We appreciate your patience. spr.ly/60163zi6k

If there is water on the roadways and you can't see the yellow and white lines, turn around immediately and find an alternate route. More than half of all flooding deaths occur in vehicles. It doesn't take much water at all to be swept away! #gawx #ncwx #scwx

Hot and humid conditions are expected today. Animals can die of heatstroke within 15 minutes, and cracking the car windows doesn’t help. NEVER leave your pets in parked vehicles. weather.gov/gsp #ncwx #scwx #gawx
