What the National Weather Service wrote

Report came in from the Roanoke Sound Channel L36 weather station as thunderstorms moved through the area. Report came in via WeatherFlow.

The wider storm

An outflow boundary coming from a line of thunderstorms located to the northwest of Eastern North Carolina tracked southeastwards and entered into the Albemarle Sound during the late evening hours of June twelfth. As this occurred, showers and thunderstorms developed and strengthened along this boundary as it continued southeastwards into the morning hours of June thirteenth with a few of these storms becoming strong in nature. This brought strong wind gusts to portions of the Albemarle Sound southeastwards to the Pamlico Sound and coastal waters near Oregon Inlet.

Began near Hatteras (35.9529, -75.6714).
