T-Storm Potential Later Today & Tonight

Thunderstorm Timing & Coverage Into Tonight

Saturday and Sunday Forecast

After this morning’s round of storms, the coverage of any additional storms will drop for the afternoon into the early evening. After sunset, there should be a gradual increase in storms, and a few of these may reach severe limits, mainly with a scattered damaging wind threat. Of higher confidence is that some of these will produce locally heavy rainfall and if these were to track over the same areas, flash flooding could occur even with recent dryness.

Digging into timing and coverage for thunderstorms later today and tonight, our confidence increases in storm coverage and potential magnitude (especially locally heavy rainfall) after 10 PM. Still some uncertainty on specifically where storms may become more repeated later tonight, but our general ideas as of this morning are shown here.

Here is a look at our general thoughts on the weekend weather. Highs will be in the 80s both days, probably a smidge cooler on Sunday than Saturday thanks to increasing clouds and possible rain, but both days will be humid. Thunderstorm coverage Saturday through early Sunday should be more isolated, but still could get a couple strong to severe storms in that time.
