Charlotte residents are urged to stay weather aware this Saturday, May 3, as a powerful storm system moves into the region.
Scattered storms will likely start around noon, with the highest risk of heavy rain, gusty winds, and lightning expected after 2 pm, according to Weather Underground.

A slow-moving cold front is expected to increase rain chances through Saturday evening, possibly affecting major outdoor events.
The Lovin’ Life Music Fest in Uptown, Kendrick Lamar’s concert at Bank of America Stadium, and Fort Mill’s Strawberry Festival could all face weather-related disruptions.
Organizers and attendees are encouraged to monitor updates and prepare for potential delays or schedule changes due to the storm.
