probability reaches its max between 4am and 8am Tuesday.
2) No sea brz is expected today but storms moving near this location
will cause winds to shift rapidly later today.
3) The activity that is occurring to your west is expected to be over
your location between 4pm and 5pm today. There could be some showers
develop and move over this location well ahead of this time frame.
The amount of rainfall for this location should be from 1 to 1.5 inches.
There is a high potential for lightning with the onset of this activity
with LAL reaching a 4 between 4pm and 5pm today.
4) Extremely low confidence that wind direction stays southeasterly
through 1700hrs today as the storms to your west should be moving into
