The wider storm

In a warm southwest flow regime ahead of a weak cold front, a very moist air mass combined with moderate instability and improved shear resulted in a couple of organized lines of storms with damaging winds. One moved across the far northeastern Piedmont and northern Coastal Plain, including Warren and Halifax counties, while the other affected Chatham, Moore, and Lee counties. There were numerous reports of downed trees and power lines in these areas.

Began near Inez (36.2500, -78.1000).
