A quiet but cloudy night is ahead for us as we wait on a strong area of low pressure and cold front that will bring rain and storms on Wednesday. Some of these storms are likely to turn severe. So, we've issued a 9 First Warning Weather Alert Day for Wednesday. Our primary concern will be damaging straight-line winds, but we also have the potential for tornadoes and large hail.
In the meantime, we'll see increasing clouds and a few showers through the Wednesday morning rush. While there's a chance for storms before 5 p.m., severe weather becomes much more likely during the afternoon and evening around here. The storms won't be completely out of the area until almost midnight. The storm timeline is below and the times are listed in the upper right of the map.
The cold front triggering the storms will also usher in much cooler air dropping the highs into the upper 50s on Thursday with possible early morning showers before clearly at night. Friday, Saturday and Easter Sunday all look dry with afternoon highs climbing to the low to mid 60s.
