If you are going to be outdoors for an extended period of time&#8230; slow down and take some breaks and drink plenty of water.<\/p>\n<p>We will watch the northwestern skies later today for the threat for some showers and storms working in. The best chance will come this evening and overnight and a few storms could be strong or severe. The best risk for this will be in the far north.
