Dear Emergency Managers and other partners,

Isolated to scattered thunderstorms are expected for this evening into
tonight. There is a marginal risk that storms may be severe, mainly for
areas west of the Hudson Valley. The main threat with any storms will be
damaging wind gusts. In addition, storms may produce locally heavy
downpours, which may cause flooding of urban, poor drainage and low lying
areas.

There is a chance of thunderstorms each day Saturday through Wednesday,
mainly during the afternoon and evening hours. A few of the thunderstorms
may produce damaging winds and hail on Saturday and most of the area is in
a marginal risk for severe thunderstorms. Any thunderstorm will also be
capable of locally heavy rainfall which may lead to water ponding on
roadways and poor drainage flooding in low lying areas.

Please see the attached severe weather outlook graphics for the rest of
today and tomorrow.
