Today's Severe Weather Outlook

Severe Storm Potential Monday and Tuesday

Impactful Heat and Humidity Today South

Storm Safety Reminders

Overall threat thunderstorms is lower. Thunderstorms could redevelop, but there remains uncertainty on location, coverage and strength. The best chance for storms looks to be along and east of the Mississippi River. If storms were to form, all hazards are possible.

Yet another chance (30-60%) for storms, including a few severe storms, comes Monday and Tuesday as we remain in an active pattern. While confidence in coverage and timing is low due to the cascading impacts of today’s storm potential, it appears likely that any severe storms will be capable of damaging winds, localized flash flooding, and an isolated tornado. Stay tuned for updates!

Heat and humidity will be on the increase Today. Heat index readings could top out around 100 degrees for some this afternoon into early evening, especially along and south of I-80 where a Heat Advisory has been issued. There is some uncertainty however, as thunderstorms and clouds could tamper down temperatures and peak heat indices. The dangerous heat could persist and expand northward over the next couple of days, so stay tuned for updates!

Do you have outdoor plans over the next several days? There is a chance for storms and some severe weather, so be sure to stay weather aware. Here are some safety tips and reminders to help stay safe.
