A few thunderstorms will be mixed in, especially in North Central areas-gusty winds, lightning and heavy rain will accompany a few of the storms. 

The storm prediction center has marked this area in a "LEVEL-1 POSSIBLE" risk for a few strong or severe storms during this time.

As of right now, it appears that damaging wind gusts would be the primary hazard. The front will finally head South of the area late Saturday night into Sunday. 

Colder air will funnel in right behind. Sunday looks dry, mostly sunny and much cooler. Wake up temps Sunday will be around 50 degrees with a PM rebound high of 65 or so.
