Strong storm chances through Tuesday

1 week ago | kxxv.com | Matt Hines

25 EVENING WEATHER — Showers and storms are likely across Central Texas through the evening hours. We will likely see a lull in the activity late tonight as storms form in west Texas. It will be a muggy night with lows in the upper 60s. Tuesday will bring a complicated set-up to the region. It's all about timing of showers and storms as we move through the day.
Scattered showers and storms tonight

25 EVENING WEATHER — Scattered showers and storms are possible tonight across the area, but the severe weather threat is coming down. We should see things wrap up Saturday morning with lows in the mid 50s. Saturday is looking nice with a lot more sunshine and highs in the mid to upper 70s. Humidity values look lower, so it should be a great day! Sunday, more nice weather is expected. Lows will start off in the upper 40s and low 50s with highs Sunday afternoon in the upper 70s.
Storms pushing south this evening

25 EVENING WEATHER — It was a story day for parts of Central Texas Thursday. Hail to the size of baseballs and a couple of tornadoes were spotted. We should see storm chances trend downward tonight with the loss of daytime heating. Lows will fall into the upper 60s in the morning with some drizzle and fog possible. Friday looks to be another stormy day, especially during the afternoon and evening hours. A few storms could be severe with hail and strong winds.
Strong to severe storms possible on and off through Friday

25 EVENING WEATHER — Scattered storms are likely through this evening. A few storms could be strong to severe with large hail, strong winds, and isolated tornadoes. The activity should move southeast of our area by midnight. Lows will fall into the upper 60s in the morning with areas of drizzle possible. Thursday will be very unstable, but there isn't a defined system moving over the region. If a storm or two can go, west of I-35 down to the Austin area, severe weather would be likely.
Storm chances are going up for the rest of the week

25 EVENING WEATHER — Tonight should be quiet across the area with lows around 70°. Breezy south winds will keep moisture in place, and that will lead to possible strong to severe storms Wednesday afternoon and evening. Right now it appears the best chance of storms will be across the northern half of Central Texas, with isolated activity farther south. Initial storms could contain large hail and strong winds. Locally heavy rain and strong winds will likely become the main threat Wednesday evening.

25 EVENING WEATHER — It will be warm and humid this week with breezy south winds keeping Gulf moisture in place. Tonight will be mostly cloudy with lows in the lower 70s. It will stay mostly cloudy Tuesday with highs in the mid 80s. There could be a few sprinkles from time to time Tuesday, but most of the major rain chances will stay northwest of our area. We should see a better chance of scattered showers and storms Wednesday. Timing is a bit of an issue at this point. When do storms develop?
Warm and humid this weekend

25 WEATHER — It's going to be warm and muggy as we head into the weekend. There could be a couple of isolated storms around through Saturday, but most of the rain should be north and west of Central Texas. Highs Saturday should make it into the mid 80s, but it will be warmer Sunday as temperatures rise into the upper 80s. Next week will start off like the weekend ended, warm and humid. Highs Monday will make it into the upper 80s once again. It will be breezy with south winds gusting up to 30mph.
Storms ending this evening

25 WEATHER — We saw some nice rains across a good portion of Central Texas Thursday. Some folks received over five inches of rain, but most of us were in the 1-2 inch range. Storms will push southeast, away from the area tonight. That should leave us quiet with lows in the mid 60s. Friday will start off with lows clouds, drizzle, and patchy fog, but we should clear out in the afternoon. Highs will be in the mid 80s, but it will be plenty muggy.
A few storms remain possible through the end of the week

25 EVENING WEATHER — We saw some rain early this morning across most of the area! We need a lot more, but at least it was something. Most places saw less than an inch of rain, but some isolated locations received over an inch of rain. Now, will it happen again? The best answer to that is it's possible. We will be watching for complexes of storms to develop in west Texas this evening through Friday evening.
A few storms are possible for the rest of the week

25 EVENING WEATHER — The next few days will be a headache for rain chances. It's never cut and dry around here. Tonight is a classic example of this statement. Scattered showers and storms are expected to develop across west Texas this evening. A complex or two of storms could form and push east/southeast toward Central Texas. We will have the moisture and instability to fuel storms in our region, but there will also be a cap over our area. What wins out?
