Rain chances linger around North Texas
As we head into Thursday, temperatures will be a bit cooler, but still above average.
For Texas Rangers opening day, expect to see temperatures in the mid-70s with a couple of spotty showers in the forecast.
We look to remain dry for much of the daytime, with just isolated shower chances as a disturbance moves in from the southwest. This brings widespread scattered showers into North Texas Thursday evening and overnight into Friday.
By Thursday evening and night, more widespread scattered showers look to move into North Texas.
Friday is a First Alert Weather Day for more widespread rain on the way and the potential of some strong to possibly severe storms. The southeast side of North Texas is under a marginal risk of storms reaching severe limits with large hail and damaging winds being the major threats.
Rain totals, when all is said and done look to range from about 0.5"-2", with some localized higher pockets possible. Shower coverage will then decrease throughout Friday afternoon, before tapering off to the east into the evening and overnight.
Heading into the weekend, Saturday looks mainly dry, with clouds during the morning, then more sunshine into the afternoon. Highs head back to the middle 80s for both weekend days. For Sunday, an isolated shower/storm chance during the afternoon/evening, as a cold front works through the region. That front knocks temps back closer to average, briefly, on Monday.
