Sunday
- Morning: Partly sunny and generally quiet.
- Afternoon (after 2 PM): Showers and thunderstorms become likely (60% chance).
- High: Around 86°F .
- Main hazards:
- A few storms could become strong to severe.
- Strong, gusty winds are the primary concern.
- Locally heavy rainfall could cause brief ponding on roads and reduced visibility.
- Rainfall: Generally 0.10–0.25 inches, but thunderstorms could produce higher amounts.
Sunday Night
- A 30% chance of showers and thunderstorms, mainly before 1 AM.
- Becoming partly cloudy overnight.

What this means
- If you have outdoor plans on Sunday afternoon or Monday afternoon, keep an eye on the sky and have a way to receive weather alerts.
- The greatest concern is strong wind gusts, though heavy downpours may briefly reduce visibility and create localized flooding in low-lying areas.
- Storms will likely be scattered, meaning not everyone will experience severe weather, but any storm that becomes severe could produce damaging winds.
