I'm meteorologist, Kat Campbell in the WRL. Severe weather center, temperatures topped out in the mid f this afternoon, but a big warm up is on the way. The downside to that is that it is going to come with some turbulent weather over the weekend, especially Sunday. We want to go ahead and let you know Sunday is now a WRL weather alert day due to the high impact weather expected. And we're not just doing this because of a thunderstorm threat. The winds outside of the storm threat are going to be quite strong. We could see some winds gusting to about 40 MPH in the evening and early Sunday night, rain likely on a widespread basis. This is going to impact outdoor plans and storm chances we could see some strong to severe storms. We do anticipate that a level one risk for severe weather will be issued for parts of North Carolina. Saturday still looks nice and dry Sunday morning. We could begin to see the rain initially filling in, this would be scattered showers, but the main event comes Sunday evening and that's when we would have the greatest threat of some strong to severe storms as well. But that's greatly going to depend on how much energy is left in the atmosphere after any rain early on. So, check in for updates as we get in the high resolution model date tomorrow by Monday morning, you'll wake up to dry weather and the cold air that's rushing into the mountains, could produce some snow flurries there in the mountains on the backside of the system just goes to show what a potent system it is from seventies ahead of it to perhaps some snowflakes for the mountains behind it. Our weekend rain, we're looking at about uh an inch to an inch and a half of rain total and we could see some isolated flooding issues. This is not a widespread threat. However much of North Carolina is in that zone where we could see some heavy rain lead to localized flooding. Your weekend looks good. Friday and Saturday. It's not until Sunday that we take a turn 63 Friday 70 on Saturday and Saturday. I think we'll see a bit more sunshine compared to Friday tonight. It is still chilly. So grab your jacket. Low temperatures are going to be dipping into the low to mid thirties tonight. Under mostly clear skies, warming starts on Friday. We're going to be warming up with highs in the low to mid sixties during the afternoon. Thanks to a warming southwest wind, not terribly windy, but it is going to help to drive up temperatures despite partly too, at times, mostly cloudy skies, we'll see the upper level of serious clouds that get up during the day. Your weekend, nice and warm. 70 degrees Saturday and Sunday. But temperatures tumble on Monday, we'll see a sharp contrast. Just 50 for the high and breezy. There should be a wind chill. We're down to 28 by Tuesday morning and we stay cool and dry throughout most of next week, throughout the work week.

Police said a suspect was found dead Wednesday as officers responded to an active shooter and reports of multiple victims at the University of Nevada, Las Vegas.

Website opened up and it's uh F AC of Southern Nevada dot is our uh current uh information that we have uh for victim services and that will um uh uh change also as or, or be updated as necessary. But we will have those resources there. Understand when you call that number or you check the website, the information right now will still be limited and there won't be any specific information as far as uh individuals that have been uh injured or, or deceased sheriff, what's happening on the campus now leaving. So, as you can imagine, the campus is a very large area to cover much like we had in the aftermath of 1 October. There's a lot of additional calls coming in that students hunker down. They're afraid they're scared. Our officers are going unit by unit building by building with the university police and the rest of the police officers, firefighters, ems and making sure that we don't have any additional victims and, or subjects. So we'll be back with you in the very near future to provide an update. Thank you. Suspect I have an update as well. I'm sorry that on that website. That's going to be F ac of Southern nevada.org. I believe I said.com that is that is.org? Thank you, sir. All right. So we just got the latest information on the situation here at UN LV from Sheriff mcmahill. Uh, we are going to step away, but let's what I can tell you. The biggest news is that the suspect is deceased. There are no other threats. There are multiple victims that was sent to the hospital. Hospital mcmahill can not tell us the number of victims. There is also a Reunification Center at the Convention Center and Sheriff mcmahill says that they will provide us with another update as soon as we get that, we'll be sure to bring those to you on air online. Uh But LaToya Dana, that's the very latest, we'll send it back to you.

Las Vegas police speak about about shooting at UNLV

Police said a suspect was found dead Wednesday as officers responded to what officials of the University of Nevada, Las Vegas, called a "confirmed active shooter" on campus.

<p>SO POSTED ON SOCIAL MEDIA THERE WERE REPORTS OF SHOTS FIRED IN THE STUDENT UNION, AND THEY URGED PEOPLE TO EVACUATE THE AREA AND RUN, HIDE OR FIGHT. LET'S GET RIGHT TO NBC INVESTIGATIVE CORRESPONDENT, TOM WINTER, TRACKING DEVELOPMENTS. &gt;&gt; Reporter: AS YOU LAID OUT, RIGHT NOW, OUR UNDERSTANDING FROM LAW ENFORCEMENT IN LAS VEGAS, FROM WHAT THEY'RE SAYING PUBLICLY, THEY ARE GOING FROM BUILDING TO BUILDING, ROOM TO ROOM, TO SEARCH FOR ANY POTENTIAL ADDITIONAL VICTIMS. AT THIS POINT THEY BELIEVE THE SHOOTER, AS YOU SAID, THE SUSPECTED SHOOTER IN THIS INCIDENT IS DOWN AND NOW DECEASED. BUT THAT DOESN'T MEAN THEY'RE GOING TO STOP THEIR SEARCHES AT THIS POINT, GIVEN THE FACT THAT AS YOU REPORTED THERE APPEAR TO BE MULTIPLE SCENES. THERE'S SOME INDICATIONS FROM MULTIPLE SENIOR LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICIALS WHO HAVE BEEN BRIEFED ON THE MATTER, THAT ON TOP OF THE SUSPECT WHO APPEARS TO BE DECEASED, THERE'S AT LEAST ONE OTHER INDIVIDUAL DECEASED, AND THERE ARE A NUMBER OF VICTIM, WHICH POLICE HAVE STATED PUBLICLY. WE DON'T KNOW WHY THIS HAPPENED. WE DON'T KNOW IF THIS INVOLVED STUDENTS, STAFF OR BOTH. THAT'S SOMETHING WE'RE GOING TO CONTINUE TO FOLLOW. THE ULTIMATE WHY IS WHY ANYBODY WOULD DO THAT, AND GIVEN THE TENSIONS THAT WE'VE SEEN IN ISRAEL AND IN THE MIDDLE EAST, GIVEN THE HEIGHTENED STATE OF AWARENESS THAT LAW ENFORCEMENT AGENCIES ACROSS THE COUNTRY, INCLUDING IN BIG CITIES AND AREAS WITH LARGE CAMPUSES HAVE SEEN OVER THE PAST SEVERAL MONTHS, SINCE HAMAS EXECUTED THEIR TERRORIST ATTACK AGAINST ISRAEL ON OCTOBER 7thth, THERE'S ALWAYS THE QUESTION OF TERRORISM. LESTER, RIGHT NOW EVERYTHING WE'RE BEING TOLD BY OFFICIALS, IT'S JUST TOO EARLY TO SAY WHY ALL THIS MAY HAVE HAPPENED THIS AFTERNOON. BUT UNDOUBTEDLY, A CITY THAT UNFORTUNATELY IS TOO FAMILIAR WITH ACTIVE SHOOTERS, WITH ONE OF THE WORST IN MODERN AMERICAN HISTORY HAVING OCCURRED SEVERAL YEARS AGO AT A CONCERT. THEY'VE SUFFERED YET ANOTHER TRAGEDY. &gt;&gt; TOM, THANK YOU. WE ARE STARTING TO HEAR FROM STUDENTS ON CAMPUS TALKING ABOUT WHAT THEY HEARD AND SAW DURING ALL OF THIS. &gt;&gt; WHERE EXACTLY WERE YOU ALL AT WHEN YOU GUYS HEARD ABOUT THIS ACTIVE SHOOTER? &gt;&gt; WE WERE NEXT DOOR, DIRECTLY NEXT DOOR. &gt;&gt; AND THEN POLICE TOLD YOU ALL TO GET OUT AS FAST AS POSSIBLE? &gt;&gt; WE HEARD LOUD SHOUTING, IMMEDIATE PANIC, EVERYONE DROPPED TO THE FLOOR. THEY TOLD US, HEY, COPS, NO ONE TOLD US IT WAS COPS AT THE VERY BEGINNING. WE JUST KNEW THERE WERE PEOPLE. THEY EVACUATED US OUT. &gt;&gt; ABOUT 30 MINUTES AFTER, WE WERE IN LOCKDOWN FOR ABOUT 30 MINUTES UNTIL WE GOT EVACUATED. &gt;&gt; YOU GUYS WERE IN CLASSES DOING A PRESENTATION, YOU WERE SAYING? &gt;&gt; WE WERE, YEAH. &gt;&gt; WHAT WAS GOING THROUGH YOUR MIND? &gt;&gt; 200 OF US. &gt;&gt; IT WAS A BUNCH OF POSTER BOARDS AROUND A BALLROOM ON THE SECOND FLOOR, SO I IT FT LIKE A LARGE TARGET AND IT WAS A LITTLE OVERWHELMING. &gt;&gt; ALSO 90% WINDOWS, NOT A LOT OF WALLS TO HIDE BEHIND. THAT WAS CONCERNING. &gt;&gt; THAT'S KIND OF WHAT YOU WANT TO AVOID, BUT WE HAD NO OTHER OPTION. &gt;&gt; WHAT'S THE FEELING RIGHT NOW? &gt;&gt; RELIEF. &gt;&gt; YEAH, HAPPY THAT HE'S -- I THINK WE'VE HEARD THAT HE'S DETAINED. NOT SURE IF THERE IS A SECOND SHOOTER. WE'RE JUST GLAD TO BE OUT OF IT. &gt;&gt; SEEING THE COPS GO THE OTHER DIRECTION MAKES IT FEEL A LITTLE BETTER, THEY'RE NOT HERE ANYMORE. &gt;&gt; SOME OF THE STUDENTS GIVING US THEIR INITIAL IMPRESSIONS OF WHAT TY SAW. WE SHOULD NOTE POLICE ARE SAYING THE SUSPECT IS DECEASED. LET ME BRING IN JIM CAVANAUGH, AN NBC NEWS LAW ENFORCEMEMENT ANALYST, AND A RETIRED ATF SPECIAL AGENTNT I CHARGE. JIM, EVERY TIME WE COVERED THESE I'M STRUCK BY HOW PEOPLE WHO ARE WRAPPED UP IN THESE THINGS KNOW WHAT TO DO. THEY'VE HEARD RUN, HIDE, FIGHT. THAT MESSAGE WENT OUT AT ONE POINT TODAY TO PEOPLE ON THE CAMPUS THERE. IT MUST CHANGE THE JOB OF LAW ENFORCEMENT OFFICERS RESPONDING, KNOWING THAT PEOPLE SORT OF KNOW WHAT TO DO. &gt;&gt; RIGHT. AND THESE YOUNG WOMEN WERE VERY SMART, THEY WERE ALERT, THEY LISTENED TO THE WARNINGS, THEY ASSESSED THEIR SURROUNDINGS, LIKE THEY SAID THEY HAD A LOT OF WINDOWS, THEY KNEW THAT WAS A DANGER. THEY LOCKED DOWN FOR 30 MINUTES AND EVACUATED. SO THEY WERE VERY SMART. THAT'S WHAT EVERYBODY HAS TO DO, AND UNFORTUNATELY IN AMERICA THAT'S WHAT A LOT OF OUR CITIZENS DO DO, BUT IT'S YOUR LAST CHANCE WHEN SOMEBODY HAS FIREARMS ON A MURDER SPREE. &gt;&gt; THERE IS A REPORT WE'RE HEARING THAT THERE IS NO SIGN OF A SECOND SUSPECT, BUT A LOT OF THE ACTIVITY WE SEE, I ASSUME, IS LOOKING FOR THAT POSSIBILITY IN A CASE LIKE THIS? &gt;&gt; YOU ALWAYS HAVE TO DO IT, LESTER. WE ALWAYS HAVE TO LOOK AND SEE IF THERE'S A CONSPIRATOR. SOMETIMES THERE IS, LIKE COLUMBINE HAD TWO. OF COURSE, THEY ASCRIBED TO NAZI PHILOSOPHY. IT'S HARD TO GET SOME PERSON TO JOIN INTO YOUR MASS KILLING FANTASY, UNLESS YOU'RE PART OF SOME KIND OF ORGANIZED TERROR GROUP OR MOVEMENT, THEN YOU CAN HAVE MULTIPLE SHOOTERS. BUT WHEN IT'S JUST ONE PERSON WHO JUST WANTS TO SEEK REVENGE OR HAS SOME KIND OF MENTAL ISSUE OR REVENGE ISSUE, IT'S HARD TO ENLIST SOMEONE ELSE FOR THAT. SO MOST OF THESE ARE SINGLE PEOPLE, BUT IF IT LAPSES INTO TERROR OR NAZIISM OR HATE CRIMES, THEN SOMETIMES YOU CAN HAVE MULTIPLE SHOOTERS. &gt;&gt; AS WE SAID FROM THE TOP, WE DON'T HAVE A CONFIRMATION OF HOW MANY CASUALTIES THERE MAY BE LINKED TO ALL OF THIS. BUT I WOULD THINK THAT BECOMES A PROBLEM SET OF ITS OWN, MAKING SURE THAT YOU KNOW WHERE YOUR POTENTIAL VICTIMS ARE, WHERE THIS PERSON WAS. &gt;&gt; RIGHT, WHEN YOU GET DISPATCHED, IT'S CHAOS ALL AROUND, IT'S THE FOG OF WAR FOR THE PATROL OFFICERS GETTING THERE. THEY'RE LASER FOCUSED ON LOCATING THE ACTIVE KILLER. HERE WE HAVE ONE MOVING BETWEEN BUILDINGS. HE WAS AT THIS BEAM STUDENT BUILDING AND THEN HE WENT TO THE STUDENT UNION, BY ALL THE WITNESS REPORTS. AND WE'VE SEEN THAT BEFORE. WE SAW IT AT VIRGINIA TECH. WHEN THEY START MOVING AROUND THESE LARGE URBAN CAMPUSES, IT MAKES IT MORE DIFFICULT FOR THE POLICE BECAUSE THEY'RE CHASING BEHIND THE KILLER. WE DON'T KNOW IF HE KILLED HIMSELF OR THE POLICE KILLED HIM OR SOMEBODY ELSE KILLED HIM. BUT AT LEAST IT'S OVER, AND NOW WE CAN DEAL WITH THE AFTERMATH. &gt;&gt; JIM CAVANAUGH, THANKS. WE'LL CONTINUE TO ASK THOSE QUESTIONS AND MANY OTHERS AND BRING YOU THE ANSWERS AS WE GET THEM. FOR NOW, THAT CONCLUDES THIS NBC NEWS SPECIAL REPORT. MORE COVERAGE AHEAD IN OUR STREAMING CHANNEL, NBC NEWS NOW, AND ONLINE AT NBCNEWS.COM. I'LL BE BACK WITH MORE TONIGHT ON "NBC NIGHTLY NEWS."</p>
