The primary risks include destructive straight-line winds, which could cause widespread tree damage, power outages, and structural damage. Isolated tornadoes and large hail are also possible, particularly in the northern parts of the storm system. Flash flooding poses a significant threat, especially in areas where storms repeatedly pass over the same locations. Northern areas of the region are at the highest risk for flooding. Residents should prepare for potential disruptions, including road closures and property damage, and remain vigilant for updates and warnings.
