Thunderstorms and Heavy Rainfall from the Plains to the Mid-Atlantic

Severe thunderstorms producing damaging winds are most likely over parts of the Dakotas into Minnesota from this afternoon into the overnight, with other isolated storms producing hail or wind over the northern High Plains. In the Northern Plains into the Upper Great Lakes and Mid-Atlantic, heavy to excessive rain may bring flash and urban flooding through Wednesday. Read More >

Scattered severe storms remain possible Wednesday afternoon and evening. Damaging winds are the main threat, though isolated large hail can't be ruled out. Additional sub-severe storms are possible late Wednesday night into Thursday morning, and could produce additional heavy downpours. Stay weather aware Wednesday afternoon and evening!
With multiple batches of thunderstorms forecast Wednesday afternoon into Thursday morning, pockets of locally heavy rain and minor flooding impacts are possible. Best potential for impacts is across the northern half of the area, where multiple batches of storms could track repeatedly.
