Some of these storms could turn strong to severe, with the main threats being damaging wind gusts, quarter-sized hail, and locally heavy rainfall, which could cause brief street flooding.
SEVERE STORM POTENTIAL IMPACTS
The greatest threat with any storms tonight are damaging straight-line wind gusts of 70 mph or greater. These kinds of wind gusts can cause power outages and snap branches and trees. While it is impossible to pinpoint exactly where these gusts will occur, you can take some action today to prepare for this possibility:
-
Secure any loose patio furniture, trampolines, car ports, etc.
-
Park in the garage if you can, and if you can’t: make sure your vehicle is not parked under trees!
-
Have a way to get warnings if the power goes out. Make sure your cell phones and devices are charged.
