There is no way of predicting when the next tornado will strike in any area. Short range forecasts can state that tornadoes are possible or probably across a region up to a few days in advance. As of November 6, 2015 there does not appear to be any risk of tornadoes in North Carolina in the next few days.
It is impossible to make such predictions.
