Today and tonight: Rain showers may develop early this afternoon. Mid to late afternoon, stronger thunderstorms are forecast to develop. A few storms may be severe producing large hail and damaging wind gusts. An isolated tornado is possible. In addition, heavy rainfall is possible with stronger thunderstorms. This may lead to flooding issues in areas that have seen heavier rainfall over the past few
days. Local creeks and streams may also rise to the top of their banks.

Monday through Saturday: Rain showers and thunderstorms are forecast to continue into Monday. The main concern will be the potential for flooding due to heavy rainfall. At this time, there does not appear to be a notable severe threat with thunderstorms on Monday.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT…

Spotter reports may be needed if severe thunderstorms develop. Rainfall reports would be greatly appreciated this afternoon.
