5 Day Outlook

Warm with highs in the 80s today with clouds clearing through the day from west to east. A dryline will setup near the I-27/US-87 corridor with critical fire weather concerns west of the boundary due to warm, dry and windy conditions. East of the dryline, severe storms are possible this afternoon and into the overnight hours.

Another round of severe thunderstorms is forecast along and east of the I-27/HWY-87 corridors tomorrow, with the greatest coverage of storms expected across the Rolling Plains. The primary hazards associated with storms tomorrow will be very large hail around baseball size, damaging winds in excess of 70 mph, and the possibility of a tornado or two. The timing of this should be late in the afternoon and into the evening, with an overnight severe weather event possible across the Rolling Plains.

A Red Flag Warning is in effect today from 1 pm to 10 pm for the far southwest Texas Panhandle and portions of the western South Plains. Dry, warm, and windy conditions will give way to critical fire weather concerns across the watch area. Plan to avoid any activities that may cause a spark or flame.

Chances for strong to severe thunderstorms are possible tonight (Thursday) and Saturday for areas east of the I-27 corridor. While to the west of the I-27 corridor can expect to see dry and breezy conditions. As we head into next week expect pleasant weather to prevail with mild temperatures and clear skies.
