Tonight's Forecast:
Strong to severe storms will likely roll through southern Colorado from the end of the day through the overnight hours. Large hail, isolated tornadoes, localized flooding, and strong winds are all the main threats from storms at this point.

Storms will move east through the plains into Kansas overnight or die off, leaving us with a dry start to Saturday. Isolated storms are possible again Saturday afternoon, but we are not expecting severe weather at this point in time.
