THIS TIME WILL CONTINUE TO MOVE SLOWLY EAST WITH MAINLY ISOLATED
THUNDERSTORMS NOW STARTING TO DEVELOP OVER THE EAST.

SOME OF THE STORMS COULD BE STRONG TO POSSIBLY SEVERE WITH THE BEST
CHANCES OVER THE SOUTHEAST PART OF THE STATE WHICH IS THE WHERE THE
MOST UNSTABLE AIR IS EXPECTED TO RESIDE. THE BIGGEST THREAT FROM ANY
STRONG STORM THAT DEVELOPS WILL BE DAMAGING WINDS. LOCALLY HEAVY
RAIN CAN NOT BE RULED OUT AS WELL

.DAYS TWO THROUGH SEVEN...TUESDAY THROUGH SUNDAY

CHANCES FOR SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE INTO TUESDAY AS
THIS FRONT STALLS ACROSS SOUTHERN SECTIONS OF THE AREA. THE BEST
CHANCES FOR PRECIPITATION WILL BE ACROSS THE SOUTHERN THIRD OF THE
STATE WHERE LOCALLY HEAVY RAINFALL WILL BE THE MAIN CONCERN.
SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS WILL CONTINUE THROUGH THE END OF
THE WEEK.
