A disturbance in the upper levels of the atmosphere combined with an approaching weak cool front will spark off scattered storms by mid-day Friday into Friday evening. Some of the thunderstorms may turn severe especially from the NYC area and to the West. Severe storms contain either of the following: winds in excess of 58mph and or 3/4″ hail. Keep an eye to the sky for threatening weather from 1pm to 9pm. The storms will develop over Northwestern areas first and then move toward the coast.
