The Storm Prediction Center (SPC) has backed off a little on its forecast for tomorrow, there is no longer an enhanced (orange) risk area. A good portion of our region is in a slight (yellow) risk category. Associated with that is a 5% tornado risk for some of us and a 2% risk for the rest of us. You can also see the wind risk probabilities. In case your curious a slight risk is "an area of organized severe storms, which is not widespread in coverage with varying levels of intensity." You can read more here.
Timing is shown in the upper image. Most of us will be asleep so make sure you have a way to receive alerts that will wake you up.
You can get an idea of how the event may look on radar below. I think the severity probability will start to lessen some after midnight into early Thursday morning but we'll have to watch it.
I'll send out an update if the event evolves significantly.
