Well, welcome back, everyone.
We were just sitting here talking about what a miserable week.
It's been with the weather and for all of you who lost power like you, Chris,
even more miserable.
We still got wires, all power line down to the backyard, so,
so dangerous.
Hopefully Encore gets out there
and I'm sure I'm sure they will,
man.
I,
I know even some more friends that live in Dallas County who not still have no power.
Um You know, we need a break from the rain.
I will say it's kept temperatures down today,
which I'm sure has made the house feel tolerable.
He,
he,
if you say so, come on over and experience it,
I was trying to be optimistic.
I, I really am sorry for you. I know it's, it's been a real pain.
We all need a serious break from this stuff and
uh listen, it's,
it's gonna stay unsettled for the next several days and maybe even longer than that.
Let me, let me talk about what's happened today.
The high 77 the the normal is 88 the low 67. So
outside right now it's in the upper sixties. Southeast winds at seven miles an hour.
So the clouds and the rain
have kept temperatures a little bit cooler than normal for today.
The Dallas Fort Worth area, all of the flash flood warnings have expired.
So now we're just left with the heavy rain. The thunderstorm activity
in southeastern portions of the area. If
you look off to the west,
you see thunderstorms near Amarillo Lubbock down through
Midland and that's where the thunderstorms are taking.
And that will be the next round for us here in North Texas.
So take a look at this loop of radar.
This was round one
that brought a lot of heavy rain into portions of the metroplex,
especially Denton and Collin counties earlier this morning,
you're looking at a pause at 10 a.m. then round two
took shape just behind it. And that's obviously what we've been dealing with.
That is the heavy rain,
even a couple of severe thunderstorms that have rolled through
uh
earlier in the afternoon
and now round three is developing well off to the west.
That's what we're gonna be keeping our eyes on as we go through tonight.
So all the thunderstorms from Amarillo down to Lubbock down to uh to Midland,
Odessa, those thunderstorms will eventually congeal
and become a,
a bit of a line segment that's gonna
roll through North Texas late tonight and overnight.
So
we are in the middle of a bit of a pause between now
and the rest of tonight we're not expecting any big thunderstorms across,
you know, most of the area we still have them lingering and farther,
far southern portions of North Texas, those will end.
Then we're all taking a break until this next round arrives. This is midnight.
You see pretty widespread thunderstorms again from
Brownwood up to Graham and Bowie.
Some of these could be a little bit on the gusty side.
I do think the severe risk is on the low end, maybe a couple of gusts up to 60
maybe some nickel or quarters size hail, but certainly a lot of heavy rain.
And on top of all of the rain we've already seen
today in the last several weeks,
there could be some isolated flash flooding. So this is one o'clock in the morning
by two a ma lot of you start waking up because
you'll hear thunder in Denton County down to Tarrant County,
Fort Worth down to Cleburne and Johnson County,
Hillsboro by three o'clock in the morning, widespread rain.
Some of the heavy across the metroplex at 3 a.m.
bears four and five o'clock.
Still some lingering rain in the Dallas Fort Worth area.
The heavier rain into Corsicana at that time
down to Mejia,
some gusty winds on the leading edge of that as well.
And then by seven, a lot of this rain is in East Texas and
we'll just kind of have some lingering showers for Friday morning.
So the threat for severe weather overnight. Tonight,
it's a level two on a 1 to 5
for the Dallas Fort Worth area
and anywhere shaded in yellow, which is most of North Texas
and then area southwest of the metroplex
to level three main concerns,
damaging winds up to 60 miles an hour large hail up to the size of quarters.
I can't rule out an isolated spin up.
That threat is very low and the better chance to
see that would be in this level three shaded area.
We will watch that tonight. There's seven o'clock in the morning Friday.
See most of the area looks to be pretty quiet, Friday.
Some scattered showers and thunderstorms will likely be ongoing in areas
southwest of the metroplex through the morning and early afternoon.
Then Friday evening,
a breath
or two,
even in the overnight Friday, we look to be quiet.
Saturday morning looks to be quiet. Any of those thunderstorms on Friday.
What you're seeing here is the risk of that. Those the thunderstorms level two,
up to 60 mile hour winds large help the size of quarters. That's the scattered stuff.
And in East Texas, that is the link
rain
and then the weekend features scattered showers and storms as well
with a lower coverage and a lower risk of severe weather.
Tonight's the widespread stuff. Some of the storms could be severe 69 tonight.
Tomorrow, 80 degrees showers and thunderstorms mainly in the morning,
scattered rain for the rest of the day.
A lot of rain icons there on the 14 day forecast. Unfortunately, we stay unsettled.
It does look like we'll have another
chance for some scattered thunderstorms this weekend.
More scattered thunderstorms for the beginning and middle of next week,
we'll take a little bit of a break for the following weekend
and then another chance for some scattered storms after that.
Unfortunately, the unsettled spring continues as we go through the next two weeks.
maybe not as widespread in the second half of the 14 day. But
nonetheless,
we're not there yet.
We will be right back after the break.
