The National Weather Service is forecasting a slight risk of severe weather, including the possibility of tornadoes, in The T&D Region late Friday into early Saturday morning.
Showers and thunderstorms are forecast to develop along a cold front late Friday night, according to the National Weather Service.
“Storms may produce severe wind gusts or a tornado leading to possible damage to trees and power lines,” the NWS said in a statement. “Downpours are likely, which may lead to localized flooding in poor drainage areas.”
The chance of showers and thunderstorms Friday night is around 90%, with new rainfall amounts between half and three quarters of an inch possible.
Following the passage of the cold front, the area can expect gusty winds. Maximum gusts of between 35 to 40 mph are possible Saturday.
