Severe thunderstorms or even a brief tornado are possible this Tuesday evening. This is Storm Center 7 Meteorologist Ryan Marando.

A severe thunderstorm watch is in effect until 8 p.m. for the entire Miami Valley. This means the conditions are favorable for storms to produce damaging straight-line winds to knock down trees or power lines. A storm producing small hail or a brief isolated tornado is possible, though.
