HARLINGEN, Texas (ValleyCentral) — It’s a relatively quiet start to the day, but that changes thanks to an approaching cold front on Saturday. But before talking about the specifics, let’s talk about Friday’s forecast. We’ve seen a few stray showers, but rain coverage will stay relatively low (around a 20% chance) all day long. Morning clouds with peaks of sunshine this afternoon. High temperatures for almost all will climb into the 90s.

Thanks to a slow moving, now a stalled cold front, situated in eastern Texas plus the addition of ample moisture is driving rain chances here across the Valley. (Also why we saw more rain than expected over Easter Sunday). We’re seeing heavy rain bands across Cameron and Willacy expanding west. Some areas have received 1-3+ inches of rain since sunrise Monday morning. The Storm Prediction Center (SPC) has all four counties under a general risk for thunderstorms today.

Now that the cold air has funneled in, we’ll see temperatures for the remainder of this Wednesday in the low 40s but wind chills will stay in the 30s. North winds at 10 to 20mph with gusts ranging between 20-40mph. Cloudy skies all day long with an isolated but low chance (20%) for rain showers. The coldest period will be Wednesday night going into Thursday morning.

HARLINGEN, Texas (ValleyCentral) — Good Tuesday morning Valley! Temperatures all morning long have been hovering around freezing (32°). While precipitation has been falling in all forms, a mixed bag of precipitation as I like to say, thankfully there’s been limited impacts. Roadways are wet so take it easy/slow if out on the roads. Winds are strong gusting from 20-40mph, which is resulting in wind chills in the teens and 20s. So what are we looking at for the remainder of the day?
