.DISCUSSION...Strong to severe thunderstorms will continue through
the evening hours with large hail, strong gusty winds and locally
heavy rains all possible. There will be a brief respite in the
precipitation late tonight through Thursday morning before another
round of showers and thunderstorms develop Thursday. Drier weather
will try to move into the region beginning on Friday, although
scattered thunderstorms are again possible on Saturday. Confidence
is building that next week will be above to much above normal
temperature wise.
