Good Friday evening everyone. Showers and thunderstorms have really ramped up across the state as we head into the evening hours. Numerous severe thunderstorm warnings have been issued across the north. These are also putting down a ton of rain leading to some local flash flooding.

I think the blog mentioned the chance for some strong storms a few days ago!!!

Storms will continue to race to the east through the evening. Here are a couple of updating radars for you to follow them…







We will keep an eye on them through the evening. They should begin to weaken out some after the sun goes down.

Gustav is on his way to becoming a MONSTER! It’s a hurricane and is rapidly developing on it’s way toward the Gulf. Take a look…
