Severe weather will be possible this weekend.

The National Weather Service says Saturday will start out nice before storms move later in the day.

Showers and thunderstorms are likely on Saturday, especially late in the day (morning may be dry for most). Should see a widespread round of storms by evening, with some severe storms and flooding possible. Therefore those with outdoor plans will need to stay up on the forecast. pic.twitter.com/jNaSZZldii

Those storms could produce strong winds and hail.

Some places could get up to four inches of rain, causing flash flooding.

It will be warm Friday, with heat index readings between 95 and 105.

A warm and humid day is expected on Friday. Prolonged exposure to the heat and humidity can cause heat exhaustion or heat stroke. Take the proper precautions to stay cool and hydrated. #mowx #kswx pic.twitter.com/e3bmmJ4OQy
