SEVERE WEATHER IS ON TAP FOR LATER TODAY AND TONIGHT. SEE GRAPH BELOW. Don’t get too fixated on where the lines are right now as they will change during the day.
IF storms do occur expect torrential rainfall, strong winds, and large hail. By the time storms reach us, the tornado threat will be low but we stand a good chance for a WIND event. NO NEED TO PANIC as many things can happen between now and then. As it appears right now, this will be a 10pm or later event. Just stay weather aware and you’ll be ok.
