So far, things are rather tame,
but we do have that line of
thunderstorms that will bring, listen,
even outside of the thunderstorms,
winds are gusting 50 to 60 miles an hour.
OK, so what's the difference?
I suppose if you have this line of
storms moving in with a gust of 60,
if you have winds already gusting 50 to 60,
but nonetheless,
let's see what's going on here.
So Metroplex still quiet right now there's
that line of thunderstorms that we've
been talking about really all week,
and here it is.
So there's that severe thunderstorm
warning in effect for Palo Pinto.
County quarter sized hail, 60 mile
per hour wind gusts are possible here.
Again, that's expected to just
expire at 10:30 right now.
No indication that it'll be extended.
We'll keep an eye on that of course.
But Parker County right now,
again not seeing that being extended yet.
If you look farther to the north,
you see there's that line extending
from Alvord over to Bowie,
almost into Cook County,
soon to be Denton County.
Here's a look at the track of this.
So based on the speed of this line,
which is about 55 mph,
here are some cities that are
in the path of this particular.
Line when?
When it arrives,
winds are going to be 50 to 60 mph.
There you go.
Gainesville 1048 Sanger 1053
Denton around 11.
Dentons already seen a wind
gust in excess of 50.
Saginaw, 1109 Fort Worth,
1121 McKinney,
1133 Arlington 1144 Dallas
just before midnight.
Duncanville,
Greenville and Commerce between
about 12:10 and 12:20 so we span
out to show you there again.
There's that line,
so let's time it out for you.
Look at broken down the minutes here.
There's 10.
45 where I expect the storms to be
1115 Denton down through Fort Worth,
down through Granbury.
So we're not forgetting areas
South of the Metroplex,
but your thunderstorm chances
are a little bit less,
a little bit better from the I-20 into
the N 1130 moving into Collin County,
there's Sherman seeing some
thunderstorms now moving into
Dallas County around 11:45.
Again within this very thin line
of storms we could have 50 to 60
mile per hour winds midnight from
bottom down through eastern Collin
County through the heart of Dallas.
County into Ellis County as well
and there we go through 12:30,
see how it's weakened quite a bit
at this point into Rockwall and
then into Greenville up to bottom.
Still seeing a little line of
thunderstorms by 1:00. O'clock.
It's pretty weak at this point.
You know it's a little thin line of rain,
maybe some Thunder,
but really the severe risk
has diminished at this point.
And then certainly by 2:00 o'clock if
you live in Van Zandt County or east,
just a little bit of rain as
the front moves through.
So that will move through and like I said,
outside of that chance of thunderstorms.
We have a wind advisory until
2:00 o'clock in the morning.
You've probably already heard
the winds pick up lately.
Wind gusts will be 40 to 50 plus mph.
They'll turn to the West once
the front passes through.
Let me step out of the way to show you.
So take a look at Dallas
last hour the gust is 39.
Let's go to Fort Worth up to 4671 degrees.
Then we go to Denton where it's 53 mph.
That's not even the thunderstorm.
So you see, what I'm saying here is
even outside of the storm chance,
we have those really strong winds moving in.
Temps tomorrow behind the front,
we're going to have low to mid 70s.
It's going to be sunny tomorrow,
so we just have to get through
this little light of storms.
Better weather is moving in Monday
and Tuesday and before I go,
I want to at least touch on this.
We have another chance for severe
thunderstorms later this week,
Thursday already a Level 2 slight
risk for all of the Metroplex.
A kind of right along the I-35
corridor and then to the east and it's
a little bit higher in East Texas.
It's already a Level 3 enhanced
for East Texas,
Louisiana,
Arkansas into Mississippi and Alabama.
This would be at this time the best
chance to see some some pretty
strong to severe thunderstorms.
We'll have to keep an eye on this one.
It looks pretty intense and again
I think the better chance for
severe weather is east of our
area or at least in East Texas and
into the orange shaded area.
But nonetheless we have a chance
to see severe weather on Thursday.
So stay tuned on that.
It's like things are getting a really quick.
Start here. Here in North Texas tonight.
50 degrees.
A quick line of storms, a very windy night.
Tomorrow 73. The sunshine is back.
There's the next 10.
How about 80 on Tuesday with sunshine?
There's that chance of thunderstorms
on Thursday,
cooler by Friday with a high of 55.
Then we climb back to 70 next
Sunday and another chance of storms
by the end of the next 10 days.
