Scattered severe thunderstorms may develop this afternoon and evening (now through 10 PM) near and south of the front that remains draped across the region. Very large hail, isolated damaging wind gusts, and a few tornadoes will be possible. Make sure you remain weather aware and have multiple ways to get warnings.
Additional storms will develop tonight through Friday morning with the greatest threat for severe weather primarily northwest of the Metroplex through 6 AM Friday. The main hazards will be large hail and damaging winds. Because these storms will be elevated, the tornado threat will be very low. Remember to leave your phone on and nearby to receive warnings overnight.
With the front located near the I-35 corridor on Friday, strong to severe thunderstorms are expected to develop east of the front Friday afternoon. All hazards will be possible with this activity. Additional storms will likely move through the area Friday night into Saturday as the front pushes east with primarily a damaging wind threat.
Multiple rounds of thunderstorms, some strong to severe, are expected through the end of the week. Periodic heavy rain will likely lead to isolated flooding issues, particularly east of I-35 and north of I-20. The greatest flood threat is Friday night into Saturday. A Flood Watch is now in effect for portions of eastern North Texas from 1 AM Friday through 6 AM Sunday. 3 to 5 inches of rain are expected within the Flood Watch, with isolated totals up to 8 inches.
