Both a Tornado and Severe Thunderstorm Watch are in effect for portions of North and Central Texas. The Tornado Watch is in effect until 11 PM this evening, while the Severe Thunderstorm Watch is in effect until 2 AM Wednesday. Make sure to have multiple ways to receive warnings!
Here is the latest expected timing for this afternoon and evening's severe storms. Our first round will be in Central Texas late this afternoon, with our second more widespread round moving in from the west a couple hours later in the evening. All hazards are possible with these storms. Make sure to have multiple ways to receive warnings before you go to bed.
Isolated strong to severe thunderstorms will develop in Central Texas late this afternoon, with more widespread storm development expected to spread from west to east later tonight. All modes of severe weather are possible, along with a risk of heavy rain and localized flooding. Large hail greater than baseballs and damaging winds over 70 mph are the main threats today, but a few tornadoes are also not out of the question. Have multiple ways to receive warnings before you head to bed and be ready to seek shelter if a warning is issued for your area.
A final round of storms will occur on Wednesday as the upper low moves overhead and a cold front pushes south through the area. A few storms may become severe with damaging winds, hail, and a tornado or two all possible. Brief heavy rain may also cause localized flooding.
After our storm chances exit the region on Wednesday, expect the rest of the week and weekend to be much drier with a warming trend. Over this upcoming weekend, expect highs ranging from the mid-upper 70s to near 90. A strong cold front will move through the region on Sunday, which will bring much cooler conditions this next Monday. Expect high temperatures on Monday to be in the 50s and 60s.
