Hello to all..

..Strong Thunderstorms possible today during the afternoon and evening hours primarily in Western and Central Massachusetts and Northern Connecticut but all areas should monitor. Hail is the primary threat but strong winds are also possible. Extent of any strong thunderstorms will be contingent on heating and destabilization and level of instability with cold air moving in aloft over the region as we get into this afternoon into early evening..
..SKYWARN Self-Activation will monitor any strong thunderstorm development today. This will likely be the only coordination message on the strong thunderstorm potential for today unless a significant upgrade to the situation occurs. Below is the NWS Taunton Hazardous Weather Outlook..
