Some strong thunderstorms are possible this afternoon, leading to some gusty winds, heavy rain and hail.

The timing of the storms are a little uncertain, but expect them to arrive sometimes in the mid-to-late afternoon. These storms are in advance of a powerful cold front that will drop temperatures, but also increase the instability of the atmosphere. 

Another thing to mention, is there is a risk of tornadic activity associated with this system. While the SPC only has us at a 5% chance, we still need to take precautions and be aware of the weather as we progress in the afternoon.
