We might be in for another loud storm tonight or Saturday, thanks to the heat and a front moving through the area.

The chance for showers and thunderstorms is just 20 percent. That goes up to 40 percent tonight, with a chance of fog in the wee hours of Saturday. If the storms form a line as they move into the state from Kentucky, some storms could become severe, with damaging winds and hail.
