The air continues to be saturated with tropical moisture.

WHAT YOU NEED TO KNOW:

A weak front dropped down yesterday, firing up the storm potential. The front has moved just south of the region, but has come to a crawl. It will continue to be an aid in allowing storms to fire up Thursday.

The rain will be wrapping up towards the Thursday morning commute. There may be some residual lingering ponding on some roadways. Through the day, expect a mix of sun and clouds with a scattered storm chance. Any storms that do form could turn strong to severe, and we have a threat of a 1 out of 5 on our scale for severe weather across the entire Hudson Valley region. The storm coverage will not be widespread, but more isolated in a few spots. But, nonetheless, any storms that do come through could require you to cancel or move plans.

Friday and into the weekend involves a decrease in widespread shower activity. There will be spotty afternoon shower chances Friday and Saturday but less so on Sunday. It is not enough to stay inside all day. Just something to watch as many of us try to go out and enjoy the summer day and night times, but please do so with an eye on the sky as well as the News 12 weather app radar.
