Thunderstorm Risk for Tuesday-Wednesday

Tuesday: The morning will start chilly with temps in the mid 20s. Temps will warm rapidly in the afternoon into the mid 50s. Winds will be moderate at 10-15 mph. Mid level clouds will stick around through the evening. Temps overnight will hold in the mid 40s. This is due in part to an advancing weather system which will bring warm air up from the Gulf of Mexico. Thunderstorms will move into the area late Tuesday night- Wednesday morning. At this moment, there is a marginal severe threat. The main threats will be gusty winds and some small hail.

Wednesday: A narrow squall line looks possible right along the dry front. This would happen midday or between 12-2p.m. This line will have the possibility of gusty winds and large hail. It is hard to tell when the squall line will initiate. We may get thunderstorms, or it may form to our east missing us completely. This last solution will pose a higher temperature of 1 or 2 degrees. After this dry front passes, temps will skyrockets into the upper 60s with plentiful sunshine. 70 degrees is possible. I will post tomorrow on the severe threat in more detail.
