No. Isolated thunderstorms does not refer to how bad the storms are,. It means that only a small portion of a given area, generally less than 20%, will be impacted by thunderstorms. Isolated thunderstorms tend to be weakerthan those that form in major clusters, however.

Isolated thunderstorms is a same thing as a normal thunderstorm... but often hard to develop and less widespread.. and rain goes to light to moderate rain, because of dry stable air moving in or not enough moisture or to hard to develop. These isolated thunderstorms can turn severe if conditions are right.
