Severe Threat Going Up

There is a slight risk of severe thunderstorms this afternoon, tonight, and overnight for our entire area.

The SPC has put us in a risk for a 5% tornado threat:

And a 30% chance of damaging winds >58mph:

This afternoon, scattered storms will develop over our area. These will be mostly heavy rain/dangerous lightning producers, but a few damaging wind gusts are possible.

Late tonight as a front comes closer, a better chance of organized wind damage will arrive.

The tornado threat is small, but there is a possibility of a spin up or two.

Make sure to set your weather radios tonight if this system evolves...

So, over our area:

The best time frame for large hail (15%) will be between 3-7pm.

The best time frame for damaging winds will be from 3-7pm, and 10pm-2am.

The best time frame for tornadoes will be from 9pm-12am.

The best time frame for heavy rain and dangerous lightning will be from 12pm-8pm and 9pm-4am...
