Maze: Threat of severe weather is over...for tonight

"The worst storm were in Johnston County, Wilson County and getting up to Edgecombe County," WRAL meteorologist Mike Maze said.

Storm reports of wind damage were widespread, and up to about two inches of rain fell across parts of the area.

In Cary, a tree fell on a home while a family of four was inside. According to the family, the tree fell on a child's bedroom while the child was sleeping, but no one was injured.

"It was good pollen-busting rain," Maze said, referring to a yellow haze that was seen in Raleigh before the evening storms.

Overnight, the area could see some light rain, but thunderstorms are not likely.

According to Maze, the atmosphere is even more unstable on Tuesday and we could see some hail.

The rain will stick around for part of Tuesday, when more thunderstorms are possible in the afternoon, but widespread severe weather is not expected.

"The storms will likely be contained to our southern counties," Maze said.

Wednesday and Thursday should be mostly clear and dry.

Each day of the work week will be warm and summer-like, with highs in the upper 60s to low 70s for Tuesday, Wednesday and Thursday and in the upper 70s for Friday and Saturday. Rain could return at the end of the week, but temperatures will stay warm.
