 Another zone facing the risk for organized thunderstorms today is the northern and central plains, as a disturbance fires up afternoon and evening thunderstorms that may become severe, bringing the risk for damaging wind gusts that can bring down trees and power lines, as well as some hail and even flash flooding from western parts of the Oklahoma Panhandle northward through eastern Colorado and western Kansas, extending as far to the north as southern North Dakota and even a sliver of far southeastern Montana.
