WHAT: A Marginal Risk (level 1 out of 5) for severe weather has been issued for today. A line of storms a long a front can gain significant strength as it moves through unstable air.
WHEN: Showers and storms can start as early as 12 P.M. but the severe threat will be from 3 P.M. - 8 P.M. with strong storms still possible from 8 P.M. - 12 A.M.
THREATS: Strong gusts at least 58 mph and frequent lightning will be the main threats. The chance for large hail and tornadoes are very low, but cannot be ruled out completely.
