Numerous showers and thunderstorms will develop Friday over the Northern Rockies, especially I-90 southward. These storms will come with brief heavy rainfall, frequent lightning, gusty winds and small hail as southerly flow transports monsoon moisture from the southwestern states into the area. Locally heavy rain causing debris flows/local runoff issues is a particular concern near burn scars and other susceptible areas.
