An upper level short wave is forecast to push across south central
Texas from Thursday into Friday. The associated Pacific front is
expected to move across the area on Thursday evening into mid to
late Friday morning. A dry-line ahead of the Pacific front could
trigger isolated to scattered showers across the Rio Grande late
Thursday afternoon or early evening.
The Storm Prediction Center Day Three Severe Thunderstorm Outlook
highlights parts of the southern Edwards Plateau and Rio Grande
where storms are expected to quickly develop and become strong to
severe. The main weather hazards look to be large to very large hail
and damaging wind gusts.
The frontal boundary is forecast to exit the local area on Friday
afternoon. Dry and cooler conditions are expected across the local
area with highs in the mid 70s to mid 80s in the wake of the front
with breezy northwest to west winds 10 to 20 mph and up to 25 mph
across the Rio Grande and southern Edwards Plateau with gusts up to
35 mph.
At this time, chances for rain across south central Texas look good,
however, dry and breezy conditions bring elevated fire concerns for
areas along the Rio Grande and southern Edwards Plateau on Friday
afternoon. Good weather conditions are in store for Saturday with
sunny skies and highs in the 70s across the Hill Country and 80s
elsewhere.
Rain chances return on Sunday mainly for areas along and east of
Highway 281 as another front pushes across south central Texas.
Sunday`s highs are expected to reach the 80s most areas. In the wake
of the frontal passage, a dry and cooler airmass is expected to
spread across the area with Monday`s highs in the 70s over most
places with 80s along the Rio Grande. Isolated showers could not be
ruled out east of I-35 corridor in the afternoon.
