Several strong storm chances in days to come

It's been a quiet thunderstorm season so far, but odds are up the next several days.

So far, it's been kind of a dud of a storm season.

By this point in June, we should be seeing more regular activity. Instead, it has been a mix of hot days with no storms, followed by periods of drier air that stifle storm chances.

The pattern ahead is seemingly more favorable for thunderstorms than we've seen much of the season so far. But as Jason noted earlier today, while there are a number of rain chances, odds of a drought-buster remain low.

We could hear some rumbles as soon as tonight or early tomorrow. They should remain on the weaker side, given when they are a risk.

Both Wednesday and Thursday have Level 1 out of 5 threats from the National Weather Service. Friday currently has a Level 2 out of 5. Any of the days could witness strong to severe storms, primarily with a wind-damage threat.
