Large metro areas on guard for damaging winds, hail and tornadoes through the day include Mobile, Alabama; Louisville, Kentucky; Jackson, Mississippi; Cincinnati; and Memphis and Nashville in Tennessee. Birmingham, Huntsville and Tuscaloosa in Alabama are the metro areas at highest risk for tornadoes.
Severe thunderstorms are not expected to occur Friday, with heavy rain the most likely threat.

Boston will be the last big city to clear out, with showers ending around 3 p.m.
