Wednesday marks the start of the 2022 Atlantic hurricane season. A tropical disturbance near the Yucatan Peninsula could become this year's first named storm. If named, it would become Alex.
The tropical disturbance is expected to move over Florida before bringing the possibility of rough surf, rip currents, and erosion to the coasts of both North Carolina and South Carolina this weekend.
The storm system, regardless of strength, will remain offshore thanks to a cold front advancing across the United States. However that same cold front brings a marginal (tier 1 out of 5) risk of severe weather to coastal Carolina Friday. These storms will be powered by continued hot temperatures across the Southeast. The main severe weather threat Friday will be damaging winds, lightning, and heavy rain for locations including, but not limited to, Savannah, Charleston, Myrtle Beach, Wilmington and the Outer Banks.
On this week's Carolina Weather Group, our panel looks at the upcoming tropical and severe weather forecast.
Plus a behind the scenes visit to the National Hurricane Center in Miami with director Ken Graham.
