Today's severe risk will be across the Northern and Central Plains and even areas down into Texas and Oklahoma will have the chance for an isolated strong storm.
Damaging winds and large hail will be the primary risks with today's storms, but we can't rule out an isolated tornado or two.
Showers and storms will be firing up later today during the peak heating hours this afternoon. There will be the potential for some storms to linger in the the late night hours so you will want to have a way to get alerts to keep you safe. WeatherNation will have more updates on-air and online.
