Weekend forecast for May 17th-18th. Severe storms on Saturday!
Good evening everyone. The weekend forecast is here! A bit of an unsettled weekend ahead before a chilly week next week! Scattered severe thunderstorms are expected on Saturday across parts of the region. The Storm Prediction Center has placed Upstate NY into through Vermont into Western NH and Western MA into a SLIGHT RISK (Level 2-5) with a 2% tornado risk across that area for tomorrow afternoon, evening! Morning convection may limit this potential but if morning showers, downpours move out by the late morning and sunshine pops out in Western NE then a few cells could very well produce damaging winds and hail with an isolated 2% chance for a tornado. The highest threat in Western New England but some storms may make it to Eastern New England by the late afternoon. Mostly cloudy skies expected for the majority of the day with some breaks of sunshine expected in between those storms which will fuel the atmopshere! Keep a very close eye on the sky especially out that way on Saturday!…

Here is what you can expect for the weekend! Severe storms Saturday
Good afternoon. This weekend will be unsettled but not a washout! Severe storms are expected for Saturday with the coverage area being more expansive than the storms today. Highs tomorrow rising into the upper 70s to low 80s across SNE. 60s expected for NNE. The problem is our warmfront only makes it up to about central New England. Along that front will form a boundry where a line of storms will likely bubble up across Eastern NY into Central, Southern VT, through NH, across SNE into Maine between 2 pm through 10 PM although i think the bulk of the storm activity will be between 2-6 PM. Just some showers for far NNE. The morning starts off sunny and humid with some light showers across NNE. The main threats tomorrow with these storms will be damaging winds of 60 MPH with small hail and localized flash flooding. Remember, not everyone will see a severe storm and don't focus on the exact placement of these storms on the future radar. You will need to keep a close eye on the…
