There is a MARGINAL to SLIGHT risk of severe storms Friday night with the passing of a cold front. Most favorable time frame for severe potential is between 8PM and 3AM over land then continuing a few more hours over the open waters. Damaging winds is the primary threat followed by hail and then tornadoes. Rain chances will diminish by Saturday morning.

We continue to anticipate the development of strong to severe storms late tomorrow afternoon and tomorrow night ahead of and along an advancing cold front. Strong wind gusts are the main threat, but isolated tornadoes and hail are also possible. Stay weather aware!

Check out this great article from NPR:

People with disabilities, people who can't afford it and people who don't want to abandon their pets are among the many who can't easily get up and leave before a hurricane.

This Wednesday, shower and thunderstorm activity remains disorganized associated with a tropical wave located a few hundred miles east-southeast of the Windward Islands. Environmental conditions could become more conducive for slow development of this system in several days after it crosses the Windward Islands and moves across the eastern and central Caribbean Sea late this week into early next week. It has a near zero chance of formation during the next 48 hours and a low (20 percent) chance of formation in the next 5 days.

In the eastern tropical Atlantic, a tropical wave is forecast to move off the west coast of Africa in a day or two. Environmental conditions could support some slow development of this system late this week or over the weekend while it moves westward at 10 to 15 mph. It has a near zero chance of formation during the next 48 hours and a low (20 percent) chance in the next 5 days.
