This may be an all-time high for RDU and not in la-la land either.  Euro 100F, GGEM 98F.

It has been exceptionally dry down there this spring so if that torch airmass moves in for a few days 100+ seems likely in the Carolinas.

Allan (Huffman) predicted a 101F top for Raleigh this morning.  My money would be that Allan will be closer.  I know you are not saying 108F or higher.

I think the 18z run today (12th) has a chance to add to this list.

No, just saying widespread lower 100s (100-104) in the Carolinas seems obtainable if things hold as is.

12z jumped on it already, 18z probably will have a 2 or 3 days of 100F...
