I think we do run the risk of seeing some strong storms in the Lehigh Valley area later this evening, but I do not think it will be a widespread event. The active weather is still way back in Pittsburg as of 4:45 pm and it will take several hours for any storms or showers to work across the state this evening. What will limit the severe threat will be the loss of energy due to the setting sun, so any storm that do fire up will weken slightly as the sun sets and night rolls in. With that said, i would not be suprised if some areas do get a heavy thunderstorm, but as of what I am seeing right now, I'm not even sure if a severe weather watch will be issued at all. The rest of week looks veyr typical of June, with a shower threat during the afternoons, and highs climbing into the 80s through the week. I'll have a sneak peak at 4th of July weather later this week!!!!!
