The National Weather Service is forecasting the increased potential for severe weather this afternoon & evening for our area.

 Thunderstorms, some of them severe, will impact the area this afternoon into this evening.
 There could be two rounds of storms. The first in the mid to late
afternoon, and a second round during the evening.
 Any severe storms will be capable of producing damaging wind gusts, leading to scattered downed trees and power outages. A few storms may also produce large hail.
 An isolated tornado is also possible. While damaging straight-line winds will be a more widespread concern, should any tornadoes form, localized damage would occur.
 The highest threat is over eastern PA, and the northern half of Delmarva, but the severe risk extends throughout the region.
 Flooding is not expected to be a widespread concern. However, any thunderstorms may produce brief heavy rainfall, and localized flash flooding is possible especially in urban areas.
 Today is likely to be a busy travel day due to the upcoming holiday weekend.
The highest storm threat will occur during and after the evening rush hour.
Those traveling should be aware of this risk
