The high heat and humidity on Wednesday will prime the atmosphere for scattered thunderstorm development. Strong to severe storms will arrive ahead of the cold front around dinnertime and will linger into early Thursday morning before daybreak. The Storm Prediction Center has placed the area under a Slight Risk (level 2/5). Damaging winds, large hailstones, and an isolated tornado are all possible.
