Quiet night ahead, severe storm risk tomorrow

TONIGHT: Things are mostly quiet before midnight. Lows will fall to near 40, but rain chances will be possible by daybreak.

TUESDAY: Much of the day will be breezy and dry, but a strong cold front will approach by the evening. Strong to severe thunderstorms will pop across our western counties as early as 4pm with storms growing as they move through the viewing area. Lot's of wind energy is associated with these storms, creating a risk for all modes of severe weather. Damaging winds, hail and isolated tornadoes are possible. These storms will have movement speeds of over 50 mph, and it will likely happen after sunset-- you will need a way to get any warnings to your phone. A great way to do that is downloading the StormTrack Weather APP.

EXTENDED: Strong, non-thunderstorm winds will follow the front Tuesday night which could knock down a tree limb or a power pole, with sustained winds 30-35 mph gusting to 50 at times. Winds will remain gusty through Wednesday morning, easing off through the afternoon. Another storm system will lift through the area Thursday morning, starting off as snow, quickly changing to rain. No accumulation is expected. More rain, which could be heavy at times arrives Friday.
