LAREDO, Tex. (KGNS) - A complex of thunderstorms that has formed over the Trans Pecos south to the Big Bend and south into Mexico. The combination of a wave in the upper level wind flow, a pool of rain cooled air behind the storms, and a frontal system will cause the storms to move southeastward toward our area. Some of the storms may be strong or severe.

LAREDO, Tex. (KGNS) - Frontal systems located near Del Rio and over the Hill Country will edge closer to our area during late Tuesday afternoon. This will help push the “lid” of desert air above our moist gulf air to our south. Tall rain clouds will have a better chance of maintaining themselves and reaching our area Tuesday night into Wednesday morning. This will be our best chance of the week. The atmosphere will remain moist through the rest of the 7 day forecast period.

LAREDO, Tex. (KGNS) - A hot moist airmass is capped by very warm desert air higher up. This will bring partly cloudy hot and humid weather through Tuesday afternoon. A cold front will slowly move south from the panhandle, pushing the cap of desert air away to our south. With the desert air aloft gone, clouds will have an easier time to grow into tall shower and thundershower clouds as the cold front stalls out near our area during Tuesday night.
