More rain and thunder today with the primary threat for severe weather
effecting mainly southern and central portions of our state. Brief
heavy downpours, strong gusty winds and hail are likely. But a tornado
is also possible later this afternoon and evening. The Storm
Prediciton Center has included our westernmost counties in the
moderate risk for severe weather. Temperatures this afternoon will
reach the upper 60s and may touch 70 briefly across our lowlands!
Then a cold front will sweep across our area tonight to bring lows
into the low/mid 40s. By then the main weather feature will be wind
gusting to 20+ MPH. Mainly dry and cooler weather will stop by for the
weekend. But rain followed by accumulating snow is on tap for Sunday.
