Keeping an eye on the approaching cold front back west as that will work its way across the Southeast for today. The front appears the feature the possibility for strong/severe thunderstorms to develop through the day. With the warm and somewhat unstable airmass in place out in combo with a nice moist flow out ahead, this will set the stage for the activity as it pushes through. Concern at this point appears to be mainly strong winds with some hail and given the look of the shear, I also can't rule out some isolated tornadoes thrown into the mix so it all bears watching for sure. The further we progress through the afternoon, chances appear to increase as storms are progged to pick up a bit of speed while developing into a more linear-look, and with any bowing could yield stronger wind potential so please do be prepared if this is the case, as I estimate the winds could reach around 60-70 mph at their strongest gusts. Highs appear to once more soar in the 60s to 70s so this will only further benefit the storms. Keep tuned to your local weather and/or news channels, and of course that includes the weather radio if you have such, and keep an eye on the sky as well.
