.DISCUSSION...
Showers and storms, some possibly strong to severe, will affect the
area again this afternoon, and possibly into the overnight period.
These storms will be capable of producing damaging wind gusts, large
hail, and a few tornadoes. A brief lull in the activity can be
expected for much of Wednesday, however, additional rounds of storms
are expected later Wednesday evening and Wednesday night. Heavy
downpours can also be expected with these storms, and may create
localized flash flooding into Thursday morning.
The rest of the week and the weekend will remain unsettled, leading
to the daily chance for showers and storms. However, any
thunderstorms through the weekend will be far less impactful.
