Warm and Muggy for the Week. Chance of Thunderstorms Daily

It seems as though Spring decided to leave us and allow Summer to move in.  Temperatures yesterday were just awful, nearing 90 and above in spots with poor air quality.  Hazy, hot, and humid (or the Triple H as I like to call it) will be the words for the week with each day featuring a chance of afternoon/evening thunderstorms; you're typical summer-like pattern.  Best chance looks to be late in the week around Thursday-Friday time frame, but even then the highest percentage is around 50%, so it's a deal or no deal kind of situation.  Any storms that develop today will definitely have the chance to become severe with strong winds, large hail, frequent CG lightning and an isolated tornado or two.  Already had reports of 3.25" hail in the Wilkesboro area in NC, so that's an example of what to look out for.  Stay safe and have a good day.
