Some of the storms later today could be strong to severe. Winds over 60 mph possible...large clusters of lightning too. I'm tracking the rounds of storms, now on Channel 9.

"Also, be mindful of the lightning. Clusters of lightning will be possible. If you hear thunder, get indoors. By early next week, the rain chance should go down slightly," Shields said.
