Most of the day Saturday shaped up to be a nice one. However, we did have a few showers around daybreak and some strong storms toward the evening hours. A few of those strong storms became severe producing some hail across the region. Above, you'll see some of the photos our viewers sent to weather@news14.com. As always, thanks to everyone for sending us your storm reports. In addition to hail reports, one viewer near Holly Springs in Wake County reported a wind gust around 45mph from storms that moved through southern Wake County.

Things should quiet down during the early morning hours on Sunday. We can look forward to a pleasant end to the weekend. Highs should reach the mid 80s during the afternoon.
