The National Weather Service has announced a hazardous weather outlook for Marion.

The National Weather Service has issued a hazardous weather outlook, predicting thunderstorms tonight and a 100-percent chance we'll see thunderstorms Saturday, possibly severe, with strong winds and large hail.

Friday's series of isolated thunderstorms have a low probability of becoming severe, but Saturday is looking more volatile.

But if Saturday's storms do go severe, it won't be pretty. In addition to the damaging winds and hail, the weather service warns an "isolated tornado can't be ruled out."
