These storms could turn severe with all severe impacts possible

The Severe Weather Outlook has all of our neighborhoods under a Slight risk of scattered severe thunderstorms for Saturday afternoon. This is due to an area of low pressure that has shifted a bit further north allowing for an unstable air mass to form ahead of a cold front.

Showers and storms are expected to move through our neighborhoods from 1PM to 6PM Saturday. However, there are still some limitations to the severe potential. If we see any showers and storms form Saturday morning, we could struggle to build instability in our atmosphere for the afternoon hours, hindering severe potential.

Make sure to have a way to receive weather alerts for tomorrow.

We will see temperatures warm up heading into midweek next week where we could see high temps in the 90's and the return of thunderstorms.
