An NBC Palm Springs Weather Thunderstorm Forecast! Here's a look at the latest HRRR weather computer model run. With just enough mid-level moisture in place -- and with the heating of the day -- a few orographic lift thunderstorms are possible this afternoon. Because steering currents will be out of the South, rain from any storm which forms over the San Jacinto/Santa Rosa Mountains may be pushed to the North bringing light showers to the Coachella Valley foothill communities. @JerrySteffen @NBC

I will continue to tweak this Kay Cast and additional info comes in. Stay tuned! @Jer
