Easter Weekend Forecast: Few Rounds of Storms! Saturday afternoon and evening: Scattered afternoon pop-up storms develop. Best coverage central/western areas. Monitoring a complex or line of storms approaching from the northwest. Impacts from thunderstorms: Medium: Locally strong or severe storm possible - Hail, gusty winds and flash flooding the main risks. Saturday Night: A complex or broken line of strong storms either weakens and/or departs to the east. Some lingering isolated thunderstorms will remain possible, but could see a lull in activity. Impacts from thunderstorms; Low to medium: Impacts lower somewhat as the line/complex exits east or weakens. Sunday: Lower in confidence, and depends on how far the overnight complex makes it through the area. However, could see re-development during the day. For now, best chances are along/south of the I-10/12 corridor and appears scattered overall. Impacts from Thunderstorms: A few strong storms will remain possible, with localized flooding.
