More than 25 million people are in an enhanced (Level 3 out of 5 ) risk zone for severe weather, which spans from northern Louisiana to just south of Chicago .

By Monday , the severe risk will shift to the Eastern Seaboard .

Storms won’t materialize until 6 or 7 p.m. ; for most of the day , a lid of warm air about a mile above the ground will prevent surface air from rising.

A slight ( Level 2 out of 5 ) risk of severe weather covers areas from south of Boston to northern Florida Peninsula .

It includes New York City ; Philadelphia ; Washington , D.C. ; Richmond ; Raleigh , North Carolina ; Charlotte ; and Jacksonville , Florida .

Because the air will be warmer and more humid over the Southeast , the coverage and intensity of thunderstorms in the afternoon will be greater there.
