Thunderstorm Watch till Midnight

Storms forming along the dryline out in our western counties has prompted a Thunderstorm Watch Box, includes Weatherford and Denton as well as Sherman but not DFW.  Storms that move into these counties could produce large hail and damaging winds. Will keep you posted as the night wears on.

THIS WEEKEND

Much the same set up for Saturday as of today, a dry line close to our western counties triggers some strong storms in the afternoon heating. A stationary front to our north should help trigger  storms earlier than today. The chances run a little higher tomorrow afternoon than this one as coverage should be better to the south including DFW.  The favored areas include the PK Fire complex so again, the double edge sword. A promise of heavy rain but lightning and strong, shifting winds around the fire zone. Tomorrow we expect another windy, humid day in the metro with highs in the upper 80's.

The storm threat/rain chances continue into the evening Saturday across the northwest and north of the metro. The severe risk also lingers, this is a weekend full of unsettled weather. The activity to our west could last into the overnight hours, at least the rain.  The favored areas for this much needed rain includes the fire areas.
SUNDAY

Clouds skies and a few showers around on Sunday morning. The storm chances on Sunday afternoon should diminish as little so the front pushes to the north of us. It'll be a hot and humid day on Easter. An overnight low around 70 and a daytime high in the mid-80's.

MONDAY

Excellent rain chances for all of north Texas on Monday as a front pushes across our area into the warm, moist air in place. There could also be a big severe weather outbreak on Monday with this front, especially in our eastern half in the afternoon. Temperatures in the low 80's but another muggy day until the front sweeps in drier air.

TUESDAY-FRIDAY

Looks dry and cooler. Windy on Tuesday and Wednesday. Highs in the 70's on Wednesday, lows 80's Thursday and Friday.
