Severe Weather Preparedness

An Enhanced Risk (level 3 of 5) for severe weather covers much of the area through Thursday, as we're expecting several rounds of storms capable of producing all hazards including tornadoes, damaging winds and large hail. Be sure to have multiple ways to receive warnings and stay weather aware!

Here's a more detailed look at the anticipated timing of rounds of storms through tonight, which will have risk for severe weather. The greatest risk will be with the later afternoon and evening storms where tornadoes, damaging winds of 70+ mph, and very large hail will be possible.

Several rounds of heavy rain producing storms are possible through Thursday, which could add up to areas of 2-4+ inches of rain. This amount of rain could lead to flash flooding, and flooding of creeks, streams and also produce rises on some tributary rivers. If you live near a flood prone area, please stay weather aware!

These are some good safety tips and reminders as we head into a very active period with the potential for several rounds of severe weather through Thursday.
