... Isolated thunderstorms possible over the San Joaquin Valley and
the foothills today...

A Pacific storm system moving south along the California coast
will bring cold unstable air to the central California interior.
There will be the potential for isolated thunderstorms across the
central and southern San Joaquin Valley... and the adjacent
foothills... today... especially this afternoon.

Thunderstorms may produce locally heavy rain... gusty wind... small
hail and lightning. Funnel clouds cannot be ruled out. People in
the central and South Valley and the foothills should be alert for any
thunderstorms in your vicinity. Remember... if you can hear
thunder... the storm is close enough to pose a threat. If a
thunderstorm approaches your location... seek shelter in a sturdy
building... and away from windows. Avoid trees or other isolated
tall objects that can be targets for lightning.
