So I have a little bit
of rain in my forecast.
So today's Monday, so Tuesday,
Wednesday, you know, it's 1020% OK.
But it's late Thursday night when
this cold front moves through.
So it's late late Thursday night and
Friday morning when we have a chance.
The Metroplex 1/4 to 1/2 an inch lighter
amounts to the West of Fort Worth,
heavier amounts to the east of Dallas.
And it brings with it a
severe weather threat,
not as potent or not as big of a punch as
of this moment as the last two events,
which have been, you know,
fairly significant.
You know, it, it's always a big
deal if it happens in your yard.
People like, well, you know,
not much happened here. Yeah.
But the guy down the street, you know,
had part of his roof torn off.
So I, I don't have those same type
of atmospheric dynamics or those same
ingredients in this round of thunderstorms,
but still, they could certainly be severe.
OK.
So let me show you this.
I want to start with the
rainfall update for the month.
We've had two, two and a third,
which isn't bad, clearly above normal
by 16 hundreds of an inch for the year.
We've had 7.65.
We are two.
Also above normal for the year TTO Jason,
we are too two above normal, Yep, .22.
So 2200, it's about 1/4 of an inch in March.
Remember, March is normally the
4th rainiest month of the year.
The normal is 3.3.
Do I have another,
let's say another inch to get us to normal?
In my forecast, it just depends.
If you get a thunderstorm on top,
you pick up an inch or two
in a short period of time.
What does that surplus of rain for
the month and for the year meant?
Well,
right now we don't have drought
conditions across anywhere in the
Metroplex or locations to the east.
Still problematic down in Bosky
County from Meridian down to Hamilton,
out in the over the rolling plains of
Texas out in the big country around
Abilene still have a bad drought
conditions there and look how bad
it is down here in Hill Country.
I mean that's as bad as it gets.
It's exceptional drought in those locations.
That's at Burgundy color.
The red is extreme drought,
the second worst classification that's
what we have in southern sections of
North Texas, South Texas right now.
Real problematic.
The same thing out in West TX
and also across the Panhandle.
So we need some rain and I don't have a.
A lot.
Certainly no drought busting
rains in my forecast for West TX,
the Panhandle or South Texas
clouds though right now in Dallas
it's 53 clouds at DBU 50,
four winds gusting to 37.
The high today was 55,
the morning low 37 so clearly cooler
than normal on the high and the low side.
The Normals for today are 70 and
4954. Outside right now a breezy S
wind at 25 gusting up to 35 pollen.
Today we have oak, hackberry and Maple.
All three are there.
All three are moderate fungus today.
That's low clouds there.
I'm looking at this up here.
I'm not getting any reports of
any rain reaching the the surface,
but there could be a couple of sprinkles
with that in the parts of Montague County,
Montague County and Clay County.
Watch this. I'll step out of the way.
7:00 o'clock tonight. You see that?
That's just a little rain
up along the Red River.
This is 7:00 tomorrow morning.
Sprinkles throughout the day.
1020% coverage this is tomorrow night.
Now here's 7:00 o'clock in the
morning on Wednesday.
Same deal. Sprinkles.
Patchy showers, something like that.
That's about it.
1020% coverage tomorrow and Wednesday.
Wednesday night 7:00 o'clock
fairly quiet overnight.
Wednesday night 7:00 AM Thursday.
There we are.
This is noon,
so a little scattered rain during the day.
Maybe a rumble of Thunder.
Watch Thursday afternoon could
be a little rumble of Thunder.
7:00 PM Thursday there's a
cold front and here it comes.
It's on top of us.
Five o'clock,
6:00 o'clock in the morning.
So pre dawn I I like it when these
cold fronts come in late at night
because the atmosphere isn't bubbling
up with the heating of the day.
It's the cool time of day.
That doesn't mean that we won't
have severe thunderstorms with
wind and hail being the big threat,
but the potential of severe weather,
it's 6:00 AM is a lot lower than
the potential of severe weather
at 6:00 PM just because of the
atmospheric dynamics in play.
7 in the morning on Friday.
And there's our severe weather threat.
It's Thursday evening, Thursday night late.
It's mainly some hail and quarter sized
hail and also some 60 mile an hour winds,
maybe 1/4 to 1/2 an inch of rain.
Higher amounts to the east
to Dallas as I mentioned.
In lower amounts to the West of Fort Worth.
The coverage this week it's 1020% Tuesday,
Wednesday half of it's late day Thursday,
but it's mainly Thursday
night and Friday morning.
Saturdays dry with sunshine and
then Sunday maybe a sprinkle,
partly cloudy to end the weekend
tonight 49 windy and chilly,
not as cold as it has been the
last few nights in the 30s.
Seventy tomorrow.
The windy day.
A warmer day and a day with
mostly cloudy skies.
We keep the clouds around Tuesday,
Wednesday, Thursday, even some cloud cover.
Friday, Friday afternoon we should clear out.
Then Saturdays and Sunday,
Day 76,
and then Sunday partly to mostly
cloudy couple sprinkle spotty showers.
Sunday's high 78.
But we'll watch that severe weather
threat and see if the the system
slows down or if it speeds up.
That will adjust the timing of the rain,
and that could also have a serious
impact on the severe weather potential too,
but right now it's a low threat.
Late late Thursday night.
But again, it's just Monday and
this is late late Thursday night.
We're talking about these things
have a mind of their own.
So we'll keep watching that all week.
Yeah. Thanks, Pete. OK.
