Easter Sunday is a First Alert Weather Day for the likelihood that showers and some lightning will likely impact your holiday plans.
By late afternoon, showers and storms will move through the eastern Midland counties where more instability may build and lead to one or two storms possibly becoming strong to severe. The Storm Prediction Center has outlined our easternmost communities in a level one of five ‘marginal risk’ for severe storm development. Should any storm become severe tomorrow afternoon, the primary concern would be damaging wind gusts.
Rain chances diminish Sunday night as the cold front tracks offshore. Next week turns drier and cooler behind the front with highs in the upper 60s to lower 70s through midweek.
