A strong Pacific storm continues to track across the Great Basin. Heavy snow is expected across the higher elevations and heavy rain across lower terrain. Strong gusty winds will make for additional hazards for travelers. These winds will bring increasing fire weather concerns for the southern High Plains. Then we will closely watch for severe thunderstorms across the central Plains on Monday. Read More >

We'll be watching a dryline to our west on Monday afternoon and evening as thunderstorms are expected to develop along it. Most of the activity will be across Oklahoma, but a few storms may clip our northern counties mainly north of I-20. Very large hail and damaging winds would be the main threats with any storms that develop.
Periodic chances for showers and thunderstorms will continue through next week. Strong to severe thunderstorms and heavy rainfall will be possible at times, particularly Monday and Wednesday afternoon/evening. High temperatures in the mid 80s to near 90 degrees are expected by Tuesday/Wednesday of next week. A late week cold front will bring temperatures closer to normal for Mother's Day weekend.
