localized flash flooding possible in urban areas and locations
which receive the highest rain amounts. Strong south winds

but if storms do develop, all severe hazards will be possible
including large hail, damaging winds, and at least a low tornado
threat. By Tuesday and Wednesday, a stronger storm system will be
moving into the plains, with much higher thunderstorm chances
areawide. Ingredients will be in place for severe weather both
days, including higher-end hazards. While low storm chances
persist into Thursday, a relative lull is expected before another
storm system brings higher thunderstorm potential Friday and
Saturday.
