It’s a good idea to have Frank’s Forecast app on your phone, so you can get severe weather alerts on the go and track the storms on the interactive radar.

Here’s a look at what you need to know about the weekend weather.

It’ll be a fantastic Friday. Enjoy another warm afternoon in the mid to upper 80s.  Stray showers are possible Friday afternoon but rain chances are extremely low at 10%. Storm chances are going up dramatically heading into the weekend.

Between 2 p.m. and 9 p.m., strong storms are expected to roll through the region. The worst of the weather is expected to be along and north of Interstate 10. 

The primary threats with any storms that develop will be quarter-sized hail, winds of 40 to 50 mph and isolated tornadoes. Widespread flooding is not expected, but localized street and feeder road flooding is possible.

The threat of severe weather will be gone but scattered showers are still possible. Expect mainly cloudy skies with warm and humid weather.
