Severe storm threat returns Thursday

We’re back at it Thursday, as we’ve issued yet another First Alert Weather Day, due to the threat of severe thunderstorms and flooding rains.

As far as the timing goes, storms will fire up a little sooner, in the afternoon; then it’s hit and miss after that, with things quieting down into the evening.

There’s still a chance of showers and thunderstorms on Friday, but it doesn’t look quite as active.
