...SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS MAY AFFECT THE BOUNDARY WATERS CANOE AREA
WILDERNESS THIS EVENING INTO EARLY TONIGHT...

There is a conditional risk for severe thunderstorms to affect
the Boundary Waters Canoe Area Wilderness this evening into
tonight following a round of weakening showers this afternoon.
The storms may produce damaging winds, very large hail, frequent
cloud-to-ground lightning, and locally heavy rainfall.
Thunderstorms could happen as early as 7 PM with the most likely
time for thunderstorms between 9 PM to 7 AM. There is a chance
that these thunderstorms do not develop this evening and tonight.

Now is the time to prepare in case thunderstorms threaten.
Campers should take extra precautions now in order to secure
campsites and make a plan in case of severe weather. For strong
winds, try to keep your tent away from large or decayed trees.
For large hail, use your well-tied down canoe or tent for
shelter. For lightning, sit on your personal floatation devices
or sleeping pads and avoid putting your tent on top of exposed
tree roots to minimize your risk. Monitor NOAA Weather Radio for
updates and possible warnings.
