The storms are likely to hit this afternoon, with the most intense conditions happening between 3 p.m. and 7 p.m.
According to the NWS, outdoor activities, especially on the water, should be avoided as wind speeds can shift unexpectedly. Boaters and kayakers are urged to exit the water early and stay updated through weather.gov for any changes in the forecast.
