Isolated to scattered thunderstorms are expected late this afternoon through tonight, mainly along and south of I-15. While we’re all in dire need of some rain, unfortunately, the main concerns with these storms will be lightning and gusty downburst winds given very dry lower-levels of the atmosphere. These lightning strikes and winds will also yield increased concerns for lightning-started wildfires beneath any storms that develop.
