A great day out there with post time temps ranging from the 50’s to the 70’s. We will start warming back up tomorrow and by Wednesday, see our highs back in the 90’s. That will give us fuel for thunderstorms starting on Wednesday as a short wave moves through north Texas. While most of the rain will stay to our north, we have a chance for storms Wednesday and Thursday, then again over the weekend with the arrival of a cool front and another disturbance. The event will be more focused over south Texas.

Here’s what our NWS has to say, “Beyond midweek all signs point to a significant pattern change as the subtropical jet stream looks to become much more zonal along with high pressure sliding off to our east over the southeast US. This opens the door for a fetch of gulf moisture to approach our area allowing for any disturbances that move over us to tap into. The first of which looks to impact our area Wednesday evening into Thursday. Highs dip slightly into the 80s before ramping back up near 90 for Friday with yet another cold front impacting our area by Saturday. These disturbances could be our first decent shot of rainfall in quite some time. While its too early to get into specifics it does look like we could be seeing our dry pattern finally come to end.”
