We will see a chance (30-50%) for showers and storms through tonight, as a cold front moves through the region. Isolated severe storms are possible this afternoon and evening. Behind this storm system, slightly below normal temperatures will make for a pleasant couple of days Wednesday and Thursday. Scattered showers and storms are possible again late Thursday night into Friday.
A few showers and isolated storms are possible this morning with severe storms not expected. The morning precipitation and cloud cover could impact the severe potential later today by limiting energy needed for storms. Storm chances begin to increase during the afternoon and continuing through this evening. There is a risk for isolated severe storms during this period across the entire area with damaging winds the primary threat.
