"Northeast and Great Lakes Regions Bracing for Severe Thunderstorm Outbreak"

A quick-moving storm system is expected to bring showers and thunderstorms to the Northeast on Sunday, with a risk of strong to severe storms in communities from the eastern Ohio Valley through western Massachusetts. Damaging winds are the primary hazard, with a brief tornado and hail also possible in the strongest storms. The I-95 corridor may see a decrease in the threat of damaging thunderstorms after sunset, but additional precipitation could affect the eastern Ohio River Valley. While significant flash flooding is not expected, additional rainfall could worsen water levels in areas already at flood stage.
