Multiple fronts will move through midweek and beyond, bringing strong to severe storms and heavy rain at times. Diurnal heating will also help to fuel the storms, with the best chance of seeing severe weather during the afternoon and into the evening hours. Some strong storms may hold together into the overnight hours, so make sure to have multiple ways to get alerts.

There will be a lot of moisture embedded in these storms, and some of the storms may produce heavy rainfall. Our model data shows some of the heaviest rainfall in Northern Illinois, Central Indiana, Ohio, and Pennsylvania.
