Scattered Storms This Afternoon/Evening

End of the Work Week Outlook

Isolated Severe Storms Possible Today South

Scattered thunderstorms to develop this afternoon south of I-80 and last into the evening. There is a Marginal Risk, Level 1 out of 5, for a few of these storms to turn severe with the primary hazards being large hail, gusty winds, lightning, and heavy rain.

Scattered showers and storms are expected this evening, mainly south of I-80. A few of these storms could produce large hail and gusty winds. As a cold front clears the area tonight, dry air settles in for Thursday before another front moves in Thursday night into Friday, bringing rain chances back up.

We'll see a chance for showers and storms area-wide today, with those chances shifting mainly south of I-80 by this afternoon through evening ahead of a cold front. Peak storm coverage will be from 3-10 pm and especially along/south of Hwy 34 with isolated severe storms possible. Damaging winds, hail and localized flash flooding are the main storm hazards.
