Severe weather is a possibility in the early overnight hours. Damaging winds are the primary threat, but a brief tornado cannot be ruled out. Some hail is also possible with the strongest storms.

This will be in and out quickly. In fact, most places should be dry by daybreak with a clearing sky in action. Make sure you have a reliable way of hearing watches and warnings through the overnight hours.

Cooler and drier air will subsequently take over for the latter stages of the week and beginning of the holiday weekend.
