While there is a chance some storms may be strong, with small

appears low.

The next best chance for more widespread thunderstorm activity
looks to come Saturday afternoon through Sunday, with the best
chances coming Saturday evening and overnight. There is the
potential that some storms could be strong to severe, but
uncertainty still remains.

Thunderstorm chances then return to the outlook area for late
Monday night through Tuesday.

.SPOTTER INFORMATION STATEMENT...
