With all this talk about the tropics, the Storm Prediction Center is monitoring the area for the potential for severe weather this afternoon.
Yup.
As it notes in the graphic above, the timeline for storms is between 2p and 6p tonight. The threat for severe weather is mainly just brief localized flash flooding and wind gusts exceeding 60mph. But also keep a look out for heavy rain, frequent lightning, and perhaps some very small hail.
The tornado threat is very, very, very low.
