Spotty showers are possible Saturday morning, and these will not be severe. However, by Saturday afternoon, we’ll have to be weather aware because isolated storms could form. If this happen, the environment will be supportive of them potentially becoming severe.

SEVERE WEATHER. WHAT ABOUT JAY? YEAH, RICK. VICKY. IT JUST KEEPS COMING RIGHT NOW. THE REAL STEADY AND HEAVY RAINFALL WE HAD LAST NIGHT, THE FIRST HALF OF THE DAY IS STARTING TO BECOME MORE AND MORE SCATTERED.

Multiple rounds of torrential downpours will lead to widespread flooding this weekend. Severe weather is also expected.

SO THE BOTTOM LINE, SEVERE ALERT IN EFFECT, SHOWERS AND STORMS INCREASING THROUGH THE EVENING HOURS. SOME OF THESE STORMS WILL BE SEVERE, NO QUESTION ABOUT THAT. ALL HAZARDS ON THE TABLE HERE. DAMAGING WINDS,

A Danville man died after driving over downed power lines in Hendricks County. Live power lines were a result of severe storms.

A Moderate Risk for Severe Weather today exists from northeastern Texas up through central Arkansas into southeastern Missouri, in the red shading. Much of that area is also in a High Risk for Excessive Rainfall/Flash Flooding for the day today.

Repeated waves of thunderstorms will pose risks to lives and property through the weekend in the same areas that were blasted by deadly storms on Wednesday and Wednesday night.

The 36-hour period from Friday evening into Sunday morning will be the most dangerous, as an additional 6 to 12 inches of rain will fall over already drenched areas.
