All hazards are on the table: damaging wind gusts up to 70 mph, lightning, an isolated tornado, heavy rain, and small hail. This doesn’t mean everyone will see these, but the strongest of storms will be capable of them. We clear out overnight with temperatures that will be much cooler over the next few days. A nice week of weather is ahead.
