Tuesday: First Warn — Warm & Breezy, Severe Storms Possible Late
We’re warm and dry to begin Tuesday but clouds increase by the afternoon when our storm chances rise. Severe weather risks return Tuesday afternoon and evening. The Storm Prediction Center has issued a 2/5 severe risk, as storms may fire up in Kansas and blow our way by late afternoon and into the night, mainly between 6 pm – midnight. It is not certain that these storms will be able to pop, but if they do, they will bring risks for hail, severe winds, and possibly even a few brief tornadoes. Overall, hail and wind will be the primary threats
What to expect: A 60% chance of rain and severe storms, mainly late in the day through the night. Otherwise, skies will be partly cloudy with highs surging into the upper 80s with southwest gusting to 30 mph.
