In Depth:
While the first part of your Saturday will be mild, breezy, and dry it's the second half of the day and early evening we will see a line of storms sweep through the NewsChannel 5 coverage area. The chance for a strong to severe storm with small hail and damaging wind cannot be ruled out.
While this will not be a widespread severe setup there are lots of outdoor activities planned this afternoon so it's important to remain alert to changing weather, especially for things like outdoor Easter Egg Hunts. All of the NewsChannel 5 coverage area is under a 1 out of 5 threat for severe weather.
Storms will begin to creep into the western portion of the NewsChannel 5 coverage area around 2:00 this afternoon, and the severe chances will last until 8:00 this evening.
