Isolated shower and storm chances return Thursday
A warm front is forecast to track north Thursday morning before stalling over the region. This will support a continued flow of warm air and deep moisture over the southeast region.

Storms that can develop on Thursday will bring heavy downpours and frequent lightning. On Friday, storms will be capable of producing strong wind gusts of 40 mph or greater, hail, frequent lightning, and heavy rain. If we see multiple rounds of heavy rain over a single location, then the threat of flooding will increase.
The pop-up showers and storms will begin to develop midday Thursday. The best chance for rain and storms will arrive during the afternoon and evening, the peak heating hours of the day. After sunset, the activity will steadily decrease.
The chance for rain will continue Friday and into Father's Day weekend.
The increase in humidity and heat across the Southeast late week will lead to a moderate heat risk beginning Friday. This heat risk will continue through the weekend and into the start of the week.
Actual air temperatures are forecast to be near 90 degrees, but the increase in humidity will make it feel warmer. The heat index beginning Friday will range from 95 to 100 degrees.
As we head into the upcoming weekend, it will be important to protect yourself from the heat. Make sure to drink plenty of water and electrolytes. Apply multiple layers of sunscreen, wear lightweight and light-colored clothing, and move indoors if you begin experiencing symptoms of heat-related illness.
If you are someone who suffers from asthma or is sensitive to heat, make sure to limit time outdoors
