Isolated Strong to Severe Storms This Evening

Heavy Rain Possible At Times Through Wednesday

Isolated Severe Storms Possible Wednesday PM

July 2026 Climate Review

Multiple rounds of showers and storms are expected this evening through tonight. A few embedded storms may become strong to severe. The primary threats with any strong to severe storms will be gusty winds and heavy rainfall, with a secondary threat of isolated small hail. The window of greatest severe threat will be from 6-10 PM.

Heavy rainfall will be possible at times this evening through Wednesday evening as two main rounds of showers and storms bring the potential for heavy downpours, which could lead to flooding issues. 1+” of rain is likely (50-80%) area-wide, but some areas could see closer to 2” (20-40%). The most likely areas to see any flash flooding are south of Highway 30.

Isolated strong to severe storms are possible Wednesday afternoon and evening along and south of Highway 30. This risk is conditional on morning showers and storms clearing out by mid- to late morning. Locally strong winds will be the most likely threat with these storms, with small hail and an isolated tornado being secondary threats. Keep up with the latest forecasts, and consider adjusting plans if you’re going to be outdoors!

Temperatures in July 2026 were generally above average, while rainfall was mixed between areas of above and below average.
