Severe weather rolls through region overnight into Memorial Day
(PINPOINT WEATHER) — More rounds of stormy weather are expected in parts of the region into Memorial Day on Monday as a cold front continues its approach from the west.
Starting with tonight, showers and a few stronger storms could linger in spots before the next round comes on Monday morning. It will be a Pinpoint Weather Alert Memorial Day, meaning it’s a day you’ll want to stay extra weather-aware for possible severe weather. After morning rain and storms move east of the mountains, sunshine returns for a good part of the day. However, that daytime heating combined with the incoming cold front could lead to more lines or a complex of storms to get going by late afternoon and evening. Damaging wind gusts and hail are the primary threats, but a brief tornado can’t be totally ruled out.
The weather behind the front starting Tuesday will feel nice! Humidity levels drop and temps get a bit cooler. After Memorial Day, it looks like we’ll be mostly shower and storm-free for a while, too.
Tonight: Lingering showers, t’storm. Low 70.
Memorial Day: Periods of showers and storms. High 87.
