The death of a 12-year-old boy at a controversial North Carolina wilderness camp for troubled youths has been ruled a homicide, according to an autopsy report.

The preteen — who has only been identified as “CJH” in documents — died in February from “asphyxia due to smothering” after he was locked inside a damaged bivy sack, which is a small enclosed tent, during his first night at Trails Carolina Camp, the state’s chief medical examiner ruled Monday.

It is standard procedure for Trails Carolina campers to spend their first night in the small tent, but staff deviated from its policy when they...

Looking at the big picture, we have a few areas to monitor, with no real imminent threat for something to develop. The area of lower pressure off the Georgia coastline doesn’t really appear to be much more than a remnant swirl from the mid-level low that swung north past the Carolinas yesterday. Worth watching, but none of the model guidance currently suggests it will develop much past a cluster of thunderstorms.
