Storms are expected to fire up along a front to our south this evening, starting around 7:00pm. Storm chances will continue through the overnight.
The Stateline is currently under a Slight Risk for severe storms for Tuesday night. The main threats will be damaging winds and possible flash flooding from heavy rains, much like Monday night. An isolated tornado can't be ruled out, but isn't the main concern.
