Couple Chances of Boomers

This will be a quick post this morning. It is early (at least for me). I'm not feeling too hot. (I'm not oinking, so no swine flu here!), but I wanted to make you aware of a couple chance of thunderstorms this week.
Last weekend I mentioned that we would be moving in to a wet period this week. Luckily, the last two days haven't been complete wash outs for the area. Along with the almost daily chance of showers it looks like we have the chance of some stronger thunderstorms Thursday and Friday.
The Storm Prediction Center is already taking notice.
Here is a look at the Day 2 Outlook. The forecast period for this graphic is 7am Thursday through 7am Friday.

I have had a few people ask what a "Slight Risk" means. The SPC defines that by saying there is a 1 in 5 chance of severe weather within 25 miles of any point in the "Slight Risk" area.
Oh... happy 100th post!
