*** MONDAY IS A FIRSTWARN TRI-CITIES WEATHER ALERT DAY DUE TO THE POTENTIAL OF STRONG TO SEVERE THUNDERSTORMS MONDAY AFTERNOON AND EVENING ***
An unusual weather setup for August will be present in the region Monday leading to an increased risk of strong to severe thunderstorm activity. The risk of showers and storms increases as a cold front advances towards the region Monday with an area of low pressure nearby. All of that coupled with strong daytime heating sets the stage for strong to severe thunderstorms. Storms could produce damaging winds up to 70 MPH, hail up to half dollar size, and a few tornadoes. Most of the FirstWARN Tri-Cities coverage area has been placed under a level 3/5 "enhanced" risk of severe thunderstorms by the Storm Prediction Center.
