As with yesterday’s advisory, large hail, heavy rain, and strong winds are all possibilities as thunderstorms increase along the foothills this afternoon, which are then expected to head east later into the evening.
It is recommended to stay inside during the storm, as hail and wind can damage buildings, break tree branches, and even overturn vehicles.
Flash floods and large poolings of water on roads should also be looked out for, and lightning is always a possible danger during thunderstorms.
The watch will remain in place until the storms subside.
