Good afternoon, Following is a weather update regarding the potential for strong to severe thunderstorms Sunday. Monitoring two potential rounds of thunderstorms for Sunday, but the period we are most concerned for regarding strong to severe storms is for Sunday afternoon and evening, mainly north and west of I-95. Storms are expected to take on a line structure (meaning more locations could see thunderstorms), posing a risk for straight-line wind damage, instances of large hail, torrential downpours capable of street flooding and frequent lightning. The main risk timing is between 2 PM and 10 PM. Some risk for strong to severe storms may exist into the Boston to Providence I-95 corridor on southeastward, but it is uncertain if storms maintain their strength. As alluded to above, we also want to message a first round of thunderstorms for late-overnight tonight into early Sunday morning, mainly for CT and south coastal RI and MA, but these are not expected to become strong to severe.
