FORECAST: Pop up storms this afternoon
FORECAST: We're drying out from last night's showers, just to rinse and repeat that forecast again! It's going to be hot and humid with highs in the upper 80s, feeling like the low 90s this afternoon. And while the first half of the day is dry, the second half will feature pop-up showers and storm chances again. Similar to the past few days, we'll watch for locally heavy rainfall and flooding issues in areas that storms sit over. Any activity that pops up tonight will slowly clear overnight before we do it again for Father's Day! A similar pattern will continue into next week with temperatures slowly climbing into the low 90s by late week. WATCH ABOVE: The latest forecast update from Severe Weather Center 9.

FORECAST: Temperatures expected to reach nearly 90 degrees as heat continues to build
ABOVE: The latest forecast update from Severe Weather Center 9. To stay on top of changing weather conditions, be sure to download our free WSOC-TV weather app. FORECAST: The building of more heat could lead to isolated thunderstorms. Storms are trying to get going, and we will see a few, but not as many as we had yesterday. Meanwhile, rain chances drop off dramatically tomorrow, and that will allow the heat to push us to near 90 degrees. Rain opportunities will pick up again by the end of the week and into the weekend. >> Channel 9's Weather 24/7 stream has the latest local weather all day, every day.

FORECAST: Hot and humid weekend
ABOVE: The latest forecast update from Severe Weather Center 9. To stay on top of changing weather conditions, be sure to download our free WSOC-TV weather app. FORECAST: It's a warm and muggy start to our weekend with a few showers pushing through the mountains. It's going to be a hot and mostly dry day overall with temperatures climbing near 90 degrees. Factor in the humidity and it feels more like the mid-90s! We'll keep the chance for a hit or miss storm in the forecast with the heating of the day. A storm complex moving in from the west could also impact our area tonight and bring a chance for a strong to severe storm. However, the risk is low as many models have this activity diving south of I-85. Overall, it's a low risk for storms today, but anything we do see could be strong to severe with damaging wind gusts our highest concern. It's a similar story on Sunday with high heat, humidity, and an isolated strong to severe storm with the heating of the day. This summer-like pattern continues for much of next week as well. >> Channel 9's Weather 24/7 stream has the latest local weather all day, every day.

Parents Face Charges After Driver Kills 7-Year-Old Crossing The Street
Parents grieving the death of their 7-year-old son, hit and killed by an SUV driver in May, are facing charges because police said he was 'unsupervised' while crossing the street with his 10-year-old brother. Jessica Ivey, the mother of 7-year-old Legend Jenkins, told WSOC-TVbefore her arrest that she had allowed the boys to walk to a grocery store two blocks away from their home in Gastonia, North Carolina, on May 27. A 76-year-old woman driving a Jeep Cherokee hit the younger boy just before 6 p.m. as he was trying to cross a four-lane road, the Gastonia Police Department said in a press release. He died in a hospital hours after the accident from his injuries. Legend's mother and father, Samuele Jenkins, were charged with felony involuntary manslaughter and child neglect in the 7-year-old's death. They also face a misdemeanor charge of child neglect. Records show they are being held in Gaston County Jail on $150,000 bond each. 'While the Gastonia Police Department offers its deepest sympathies to the family for the heartbreaking loss of their child, the investigation revealed that the children involved were unsupervised at the time the boy stepped into traffic,' police wrote in the release. 'In such cases, adults must be held accountable for their responsibilities to ensure a safe environment for their children.' The Gastonia police department has received massive backlash following news of the parents' arrests, with numerous people expressing their outrage on social media. The department declined to comment on the controversy. The 76-year-old driver who struck Legend with her vehicle has not been charged. Police said there was no evidence of wrongdoing, noting that she was not speeding and is cooperating with the ongoing investigation. Legend's grieving mother believes the woman's driving privileges should be revoked. 'It's hard, I haven't stopped crying; my husband hasn't stopped crying,' she told WSOC-TV.
