...SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ARE POSSIBLE THIS AFTERNOON INTO TONIGHT...

ALTHOUGH SCATTERED THUNDERSTORMS COULD MOVE INTO THE REGION FROM
WESTERN PENNSYLVANIA THIS MORNING...THE BETTER CHANCES FOR
THUNDERSTORMS WILL BE THIS AFTERNOON AND EVENING.

THE SOUTHWEST FLOW OF HUMID AIR WILL CONTINUE ACROSS THE REGION TODAY
AND TONIGHT. A FRONTAL SYSTEM WILL APPROACH FROM THE NORTH THIS
EVENING AND THEN DISSIPATE BEFORE REACHING THE REGION OVERNIGHT. AS A
RESULT, SCATTERED SHOWERS AND THUNDERSTORMS ARE EXPECTED TO DEVELOP
THROUGH THE AFTERNOON HOURS AND REMAIN AT LEAST THROUGH THE EVENING. 

SOME OF THE THUNDERSTORMS MAY PRODUCE DAMAGING WIND GUSTS, HAIL AND
FREQUENT CLOUD TO GROUND LIGHTNING. IF YOU OBSERVE THREATENING 
WEATHER, SEEK SHELTER AT ONCE.

SOME THUNDERSTORMS MAY ALSO BE ACCOMPANIED BY HEAVY DOWNPOURS, 
PERHAPS AN INCH OR TWO IN A SHORT PERIOD OF TIME. THESE DOWNPOURS 
MAY RESULT IN LOCALIZED FLOODING IN AREAS OF POOR DRAINAGE.

STAY TUNED TO NOAA WEATHER RADIO, THE VOICE OF THE NATIONAL WEATHER
SERVICE, OR YOUR LOCAL MEDIA OUTLET FOR FURTHER UPDATES.
