Storm and flash flood threat tonight, humidity drops Saturday

 

Thunderstorms are likely after sunset. A scattering of storms begins after 9:00 PM with increasing coverage through the overnight hours. An eventual line of storms will cut northwest to southeast, likely after midnight, through the early morning. There is the potential for strong storms, fueled by the heat and humidity. Heavy rain and flash flooding are also a concern. If scattered storms initialize before midnight, they might interfere with the eventual line that cuts through after midnight. There are a lot of moving pieces. You should be ready for alerts and power outages. The mains threats are strong wind and flooding. 

The humidity drops this weekend. After rain clears in the morning, Saturday and Sunday will be more pleasant and comfortable. That weather continues through next week.  

Tonight: Thunderstorms, some possibly severe. Low 70.

Saturday: AM Showers, Gradual clearing in the afternoon. High 84.

Sunday: Sunny. High 80. 

Monday: Sunny. High 82.
