Our region is under a Slight Risk of Severe Storms from the Storm Prediction Center – which means while the overall severe weather threat is low, a few warnings will be possible. Some storms could pack isolated damaging wind, torrential rain, frequent lightning and hail – similar to yesterday’s storms in Indiana.
The map below shows the line potentially moving in around 7 PM.
Otherwise, much of today will be hot, humid, and a bit breezy like yesterday with highs near 90°. Southwest winds at 10-20 mph.
This is going to be a slow-moving cold front which will hang around with more scattered showers through much of our Wednesday. A bit cooler tomorrow with a north breeze and highs in the 70s.
It looks like we’ll get a break in the rain Thursday, before more widespread showers return for Friday. The front stalls out close enough to give us occasional rain showers and thunderstorms through our Memorial Day Weekend. Keep the rain gear handy!
