Not a ton of rain heading our way but at least enough this week to keep drought from getting any worse! #ThinkPositive

The Mount Washington summit has experienced quite a wintry start to May, with 4.7" recorded since the start of the month, which has led to snowdrifts building back up along the side of the Yankee Building.

@SamCroston1 @CNYCentral Congratulations! 🏆

Every kid should get a chance to watch their favorite sports team play in person. That’s why I’m running the @BuffaloMarathon on May 24th: to support Andrew’s Game Day and @PUNTpedcancer, the Pediatric Cancer Collaborative. It’s very easy to help!

Snow is coming to the high peaks of northern New York tonight (pictured) while frost is due in parts of the interior Northeast these next couple of late nights. How do you like May so far?

Looking good for the start of the SC Strawberry festival tonight in Fort Mill, but light rain is still coming for Saturday morning. It won't rain all day tomorrow and it is light, but it will be damp to start out. Hoping we get some dry time by the afternoon.

ON THIS DATE, 102 YEARS AGO: The deadliest tornado outbreak in South Carolina history occurred. An F3 tornado tracked 65 miles across Upstate SC. 9 people were killed and over 150 more were injured. A tornado tracked across the Midlands of SC and killed at least 67 people. #scwx

Exceptional drought conditions are now present for parts of Mecklenburg, Union, Cabarrus, and Stanly counties for the first time since 2008. This update does NOT include any of the rain since Tuesday, though totals have been so low that it likely wouldn't have made a difference.

See the big explosion?! On this day, 4 years ago, i was getting ready to intercept the Andover, Kansas #tornado by ground and air. A tornado warning had not yet been issued, and the fire chief was watching this unfold on my FB live stream, and sounded the sirens. Miraculously, there were no lives lost from this tornado #stormchasing #Dominator

say what!!

Significant damage in Mineral Wells, Texas from a tornado earlier this evening. #TXwx

WATCH: A driver in Springfield, MO was absolutely PUMMELED by large #hail on Tuesday. Watch as baseball-size hailstones explode as they hit the ground, and how the roof recoils as they pound the top of the vehicle. #MOwx

HEARTBREAKING DAMAGE: A confirmed #tornado struck near Mountain View, AR Monday, knocking multiple large trees into homes and flipping an RV onto its side. Gratefully, the Stone County Sheriff's Office said there were no major injuries or fatalities. #ARwx

Rain is getting ever closer to Charlotte. Grab those umbrellas, you'll need them shortly.

WOW! An INCREDIBLE shot of dual lightning strikes captured on Lake of the Ozarks, Missouri this evening! 📸 Viewer Submission

Rain chances come back Tuesday and Wednesday this week. Tomorrow's rain looks to be mostly for the mountains only, but more widespread rain should roll in Wednesday morning. Brief heavy rain is possible but overall totals for the week aren't that high.

👀🌪️ Check out this dust devil from Warwick, RI today! Amazing! Dust devils form primarily due to strong localized heating of the ground on clear, sunny days with light or calm winds—not from large-scale windy weather. They are a type of dry convective vortex (not connected to thunderstorms like tornadoes). 📹: Leanne Walker #Seeweather #eweather #dustdevil
