The wider storm

A cold front interacted with a moist and unstable air mass to result in numerous showers and storms across central North Carolina. A few discrete cells first developed during the evening in the northwest Piedmont, resulting in reports of one to two inch hail there. Once the storms consolidated into a line farther south and east, they transitioned into more of a damaging wind event in the late evening and early overnight hours, with numerous reports of trees and power lines down in parts of the northeast Piedmont, Sandhills, and Coastal Plain. There were also many reports of flash flooding in Cumberland County, including Fayetteville.

Began near Anderson Creek (35.2407, -78.9509).
