A better chance for showers and storms this evening, with roughly half our area getting wet at some point before midnight. Overnight lows drop into the mid 60s.

These storms could produce strong straight line winds, some small hail, and a few tornadoes. The main time-frame for severe weather will be from 10PM Saturday to 6 AM Sunday, so be sure to have a way to receive warnings while you are asleep. Now is also a good time to go over your severe weather safety plan.
