A Tornado Watch is now in effect for our far northwest counties through 11 pm this evening (4/26). Any storm that develops in this area would have the potential to produce hail up to 3 inches, a couple of tornadoes, and damaging winds to 70 mph. Make sure to have multiple ways to receive warnings and to have a plan in place this afternoon and evening!
There will be a conditional threat for isolated severe storms late this afternoon and evening across parts of North Texas. A strong capping inversion will keep storm coverage limited (less than 20%), but any storms that do develop will be capable of producing large hail and damaging wind gusts.
A few showers and storms may develop Monday afternoon and evening mainly across portions of East and Central Texas. Most locations are expected to remain dry, but IF storms develop, they could become strong to marginally severe with hail. Better storm chances will arrive on Tuesday as a cold front approaches our region. Some could become severe mainly across the northern counties. All hazards are possible with this activity. Keep checking back the forecast for updates.
Daily chances for showers and storms will continue through the rest of this week, with greatest chances Thursday into Friday. A cold front will move through late Tuesday into Wednesday, bringing cooler temperatures to end the week. Some storms could become strong on Wednesday, while the threat for heavy rain increases by Friday.
