Possible severe weather 10/29-10/31

It has that feeling outside like we should get storms, but it's been hard to get them around here all year.
 
RAH still showing a line of storms coming through later tonight.
 
WRAL already preparing us for the letdown.

Here's the status of activity to our west on the radar. There are gusty showers about to move through the Charlotte area. There is no lightning and may not be much in the way of lightning as these storms approach later this evening. @WRALWeather
 
Probably a good thing we aren't more unstable. You got the mail cell north of 40 but those videos east of Charlotte that are kind of in their own environment could be a problem as they move east. KRAX - Super-Res Reflectivity Tilt 1, 10_47 PM.png
 
And now after seeing 99% of the good storms stay to my south and east this year, looks like they are going to miss me to the north this time according to WRAL


Heavy rain and strong winds are moving northeast through Person and northern Orange Counties. Winds could gust between 40 and 50 mph.
 
And once again nothing for the Triangle. Not sure anyone in the Triangle will believe a forecast for severe storms here again until it actually happens after the way this year has been.

So what happened to that lack of instability?

We weren't incredibly unstable last night, we had SB capes around 500 and ML capes around 1000. That was enough to at least combine with the inbound forcing to develop and sustain a skinny shallow line of convection that really didn't have a lot of lightning. Had we had more cape/better ml LR's we would have seen a much more active evening with warnings and likely a decent wind/QLCS tornado event
