Hail up to 2.75 inches fell across northern Harnett County. Property damage values have been estimated.

The wider storm

The remnants of Harvey increased the southwesterly flow over Central North Carolina as it moved northeastward through Tennessee and Kentucky. In the wake of the northward moving warm front, a cold front moved into and stalled over Central North Carolina providing lift in the strongly sheared, moist environment. The resulting thunderstorms became severe, producing damaging wind gusts, large hail and flash flooding.

Began near Angier (35.5300, -78.7700).
