| Episode Narrative | A large outflow boundary from an overnight thunderstorm complex moved through the region during the morning and early afternoon hours of July 22. This prevented thunderstorm development until early evening when storms started developing. Meanwhile, a line of thunderstorms approached the area from the west. Outflow from the first storms generated scattered clusters of storms across the northwest NC and southwest VA Piedmont up to the Blue Ridge, while the more organized line of storms moved into the mountains. |
