  • Some of this rain may arrive before midnight, but the storm threat looks best during the overnight hours.
  • The severe threat is there, with the biggest concern being strong, damaging winds.
  • While a few storms may still be around near daybreak on Tuesday, we should dry out quickly and see sunshine take over in the afternoon

  • While the bulk of these storms will remain to our south, some of us will get in on the action.
  • A severe threat is present during this time-period, with strong damaging winds and hail being the biggest concerns.
