Later in the evening, the potential for severe weather increases and continues throughout the evening and into Tuesday morning. Lows hang around in the mid to upper 60s overnight.

Severe potential with this second round of storms is also a possibility, and we will keep you updated as the situation evolves. Highs top out in the low 70s once again while lows take a drop into the mid to upper 50s as our cold front finally arrives in the area.
