A severe thunderstorm watch has been issued for certain areas. Damaging winds and hail are the main concerns. Winds may reach speeds of up to 80 mph, and hail events could produce hail up to 1.5 inches in diameter.

High-based storms are expected to develop and move northeastward through the evening. These storms will be in a hot and well-mixed environment, near a pre-frontal trough.

Further details about the watch, including the affected areas and timing, are available from the Storm Prediction Center.
