Good Sunday afternoon, Folks! Were looking at a stormy setup for the week, with thunderstorms, some strong to severe, occurring Monday afternoon into the overnight period. Damaging winds are the main threat, though an isolated tornado and/or small hail can not be ruled out. Localized flooding also is possible in areas that see persistent storminess late Monday night. Additional storms are forecast for Tuesday and Wednesday. A few of these storms could become strong to severe on Wednesday, with gusty winds and small hail as the main threats.
Heavy rainfall is a good bet with the southern half of the state seeing the best chance for heavier rain. Below is the WPC rainfall forecast over the next 5 days, areas in the darker purple and red could see between 2-3 inches of rain this week. I'll keep you updated on the latest! Have a great week, folks!
