There are very low (10-30%) chances for a storm or two across the southeast this evening ahead of a cold front. These storms could be severe with large hail and damaging wind gusts if they form near Wellington. Additional storms may form very early Friday morning and these storms could become strong to potentially severe, with the primary hazard being large hail if severe storms form. The storm hazards and development overnight are uncertain, so keep up to date with any forecast changes.

Expecting some lingering rain and clouds Friday morning, but if clouds can clear and we can warm up enough, an isolated storm will be possible in the late afternoon. If that happens, then a strong to severe storm cannot be ruled out with large hail and damaging winds the most likely hazard. A line of storms may develop Friday evening which will could produce damaging wind gusts up to 70 mph. Heavy rain is expected with any thunderstorm which could produce localized flooding.

If rain and clouds move out early enough in the day and enough warming occurs, then we could see an isolated thunderstorm develop in the late afternoon with a potential for large hail and damaging winds, and a tornado cannot be ruled out. A line of storms will potentially develop Friday evening and move eastward. Strong to severe thunderstorms will be possible with the primary threat being damaging wind gusts.
