There is a Marginal Severe Storm Risk for your location. Continue reading for today's outlook from the National Weather Service's Storm Prediction Center. -------------------- National Severe Storm Outlook THERE IS AN ENHANCED RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS PARTS OF THE CENTRAL HIGH PLAINS AND COLORADO FRONT RANGE THERE IS A SLIGHT RISK OF SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS ACROSS THE CENTRAL AND SOUTHERN PLAINS...MID-ATLANTIC STATES...AND UPPER MIDWEST SUMMARY Severe thunderstorms capable of producing 2+ inch diameter hail, 75+ mph gusts, and isolated tornadoes are expected from the central High Plains into parts of the southern Plains through tonight. Other severe thunderstorms are expected across southeast Virginia and eastern North Carolina, as well across the Upper Midwest. 20Z Update The primary change with this update was a westward expansion of severe probabilities (including the ENH) toward the higher terrain in southern/central CO. Rich boundary-layer moisture (middle/upper 60s dewpoints) along the western edge of convectively reinforced outflow in the central High Plains will spread westward beneath steep midlevel lapse rates toward the higher terrain through this afternoon into tonight -- in response to a passing midlevel wave to the north. This rich moisture/outflow and enhanced easterly upslope flow should support isolated to widely scattered thunderstorms along the higher terrain into this evening. Around 50 kt of effective shear and strong surface-based buoyancy will promote supercells capable of producing very large hail along the I-25 corridor. Elsewhere, only minor modifications were made to the outlook, to include trimming severe probabilities behind eastward-spreading convection in the Mid-Atlantic, and a southward expansion of probabilities in the southern Plains (ahead of southward-moving thunderstorm clusters).
