The storms today and tomorrow will have a low chance of becoming severe with their main threat being damaging winds.  Another threat from these storms will be localized flooding if several move across the same area over and over.

Remember that “cold” front that is making today and tomorrow soggy?  It will move just south of our region this weekend and become stationary, spurring some showers to form especially in the southern part of our region.  Overall, it will be dryer this weekend than today though.
