As i told you earlier in the show, there were a few sprinkles still lingering but that they were going to clear up pretty quickly and were starting to see that trend setting up throughout the metro area. It is going to be a very warm day, though. 79 degrees already at 8 00. 86 at noon but with the heat index, its already going to feel like its into the 90s. Then into the 90s we go in the afternoon. 91 degrees by 4 00. Thats dropping down from a high of 93 which will reach which well reach at 3rbg. The 3 00. Then the threat of thunderstorms arrive late in the afternoon into the evening. I say between 5 00 and 9 00 p. M. Is when were looking for that threat of thunderstorms.

This is the focus as we head into the later afternoon hours. The orange area is where the Storm Prediction Center thinks there is the greatest potential for Severe Weather today. And the main threats would be damaging wind gusts and heavy downpours. But were not expecting that flooding potential like we had yesterday.

Youll see that here on 9 futurecast as well. The focus of the energy is further to the north. Were
