“Conditions look conducive to thunderstorms in the Sacramento Valley Monday,” Epstein said. “It is possible that some become severe, meaning large hail and damaging winds of 58 mph or greater. Funnel clouds and tornado development is also possible.”

Monday morning is expected to be partially clear which will fuel the thunderstorm development in the afternoon, according to Epstein. He said the type of thunderstorm forecast is known as ‘supercells’ that most commonly produce tornadoes.
“If you find yourself in severe weather, seek shelter in a sturdy building as quickly as you can,” Epstein said. “The goal is to put as many walls between you and the outside as possible. If you can’t get indoors, stay in your car. Do not park or stand under trees.”
