A hot and humid pattern is beginning to evolve across our area. There will be chances for relief from isolated shower and storm chances in the afternoons/evenings. Any storm that develops in this heat will be capable of being strong to even briefly severe. Those are expected to be very isolated, at best. Be ready to stay cool and hydrated.
This Week’s Hazards
Today’s risk is dependent upon how well a complex of storms hold together as it drops down from Kentucky this evening. Monday’s threat is based on another complex of storms that could brush the northern plateau. I’ll keep you posted! Keep in mind that any summer storm, while isolated, can be quite strong to severe, even if only in a small area.

HRRR Radar Model
This model runs from 9:00 a.m. to 9:00 p.m. This particular model wants to dissipated storms before they drop down from Kentucky this evening. However, this model sometimes dissipates storms too quickly. I’ll keep an eye on this today.
