The primary risk from the severe weather forecast is strong, straight-line winds, which could reach speeds of up to 80 mph. These winds have the potential to cause power outages, topple trees, and scatter debris across streets. While the chance of tornadoes and large hail is low (less than 2%), the fast-moving storms could still cause localized damage. Residents in the affected areas should prepare for possible disruptions, especially during the evening hours of Monday into early Tuesday morning.
