Isolated to scattered thunderstorms are expected over portions of the area today, most numerous and of most concern this afternoon and evening. These storms will have the ability to produce cloud to ground lightning, locally heavy rainfall of a half an inch to one inch, strong outflow wind gusts, and small hail. When thunder roars, go indoors! Go inside a house, car or sturdy building during thunderstorms. Do not seek shelter under trees and stay away from water and/or metal objects. Since many areas where thunderstorms are expected are very dry, abundant lightning on dry fuels is very likely to start some wildfires that could grow rapidly, especially in areas where gusty outflow winds occur.
