WEATHER AWARE DAY FOR STRONG AFTERNOON STORMS...

From StormCenter 2 Meteorologist David Ernst:

StormCenter 2 will continue the Weather Aware Day for the chance of strong to severe thunderstorms this afternoon. More intense storms may have locally heavy downpours, large hail, and strong straight-line winds. The primary window where these storms will be possible is from 2-8 p.m. Your severe weather outlook is MODERATE... Stay tuned to Action 2 News on-air and on-line as any active weather develops.

You'll also notice that it's going to be a warm and slightly humid day with highs into the mid 70s. The rest of the week looks warmer with highs in the 80s. The humidity will be down slightly tomorrow and Wednesday, but the muggy air will build again late in the week and into the upcoming weekend. We should begin Tuesday sunny, but more afternoon clouds will materialize, and a stray PM storm could develop. Wednesday should be dry and mostly sunny. But, with the return of warmer conditions and higher humidity late-week, we will have the chance for pop-up afternoon storms starting on Thursday and continuing through the weekend.
