  • Scattered storms are possible tonight as a cold front moves through the region.The most likely timing is between 9 PM and 3 AM.
  • Confidence remains low on the coverage of storms (30-60%, highest north of highway 30)
  • There is a LOW chance that the “CAP” (a layer of warm air aloft) erodes this afternoon or evening. *IF* this happens, any storms that develop would likely become severe. (Afternoon/evening chances for storms: 20 – 30%, highest north of Highway 20) 
  • Despite the low confidence in storm coverage, it should be noted that any storm that does develop could produce damaging winds, large hail >2”, and tornadoes; some strong!
