The remnant low from Tropical Cyclone Beta was moving from north Alabama into Georgia, along a warm frontal zone across South Carolina and south-central North Carolina to the northern Outer Banks. Meanwhile, a mid level shortwave trough was tracking eastward across southwestern Virginia. Convection began to increase in a broad band just south of central North Carolina, and it was from this that two distinct cells started accelerating to the north-northeastward, with the leftmost cell eventually becoming dominant and intensifying over northeast Lee County as it move to the of the surface boundary. It produced a swath of large hail across western Wake County before starting to weaken over far northwest Wake County.
