As these storm systems tap into the abundant atmospheric moisture, downpours may produce rainfall rates of up to 2.5 inches per hour. These downpours could result in flash flooding, especially in areas experiencing drought impacts.

Severe storms are expected throughout the afternoon and evening, impacting evening commutes and activities.
