Remember that Summer is the "flash flooding and damaging wind season" across the country. While most areas stay dry, the few that do get rain can get too much. Stagnant or slow steering currents and weak wind shear contribute to the outcome.
Case in point, models are hinting at areas receiving over 7" of rain Saturday. So you might find yourself in a flood situation. Watch my lunchtime video replay for additional information, and be safe this weekend! -AT
There is a tornado watch to the north and a severe thunderstorm watch to the southwest. I'll go live this evening to give you an update.
There is a moderate risk of severe thunderstorms this afternoon and evening. Tornadoes, baseball size hail, and damaging winds are expected. Stay weather aware.
I'll broadcast live once tornadogenesis begins. -AT
There is a risk of severe weather again today across a large area. There is also a tornado risk. Download my free weather app, ATsWeatherToGo, to get advanced notice of developing tornadoes before a warning comes out.
I'll be going live with an update this afternoon as well as live tornado coverage.
