00:00To the west we have the thunderstorm potential there, and the large hailers are out there.
00:05Also into areas northwest of San Antonio, south and east of Brady, Texas still.
00:10And that other zone with strong thunderstorms still cruising through parts,
00:14or maybe drifting through parts of Mississippi.
00:16Saturday, rain showers and thunderstorms return to you in Chicago.
00:19You had a great day today, can't say the same tomorrow.
00:21And then into the western part of Nebraska in a thin band all the way down through west Texas.
00:26It's not large, but there will be a zone here, this little boundary,
00:30where strong storms break out in the afternoon, and some of them will become severe.
00:34And into the night they'll expand farther east.
00:36Large hail, damaging winds, isolated tornadoes.
00:39That previous map kind of characterizes the daytime hours.
00:42That does expand east into the evening and through Saturday night, covering more area.
00:47And here you can see, let's go through late Saturday afternoon.
00:49Garden City, Kansas here.
00:51Big storms popping, moving through at least some parts of western Kansas,
00:55and we'll be dealing with damaging wind and hail as the main concerns there in western Kansas.
01:00And the overall flavor here, the bigger storms Saturday are to the south,
01:04Saturday evening and night, even Nebraska in on some of that, parts of South Dakota.
01:07But Sunday, the bigger storms will be to the north here, Nebraska north to the international border,
01:12with some storms farther south.
01:14The storms that develop farther south will bring more of a flash flood threat.
01:17We've seen a lot of this lately.
01:19We have rounds of downpours.
01:20We're not done with this yet.
01:22But by Sunday, the storm threat will be decreasing to the south for a bit.
01:25And we still have significant to moderate river flooding ongoing here over the past four weeks,
01:31and that continues this weekend into east Texas, but some risk of flash flooding.
01:35We're not done with the rain here in the lower Mississippi Valley.
