The first half of Wednesday will be windy and warm with spotty showers, with the severe threat conditional on storms being able to overcome a cap. If they do, the storms would likely become severe with large hail and damaging winds the main threats.

The marginal risk is for areas west of I-35 and mainly after 5 p.m.

On Thursday, the severe threat is in the afternoon, ahead of a cold front moving into North Texas.

Thursday morning will be windy and warm with spotty showers. By the afternoon, storms will begin developing east of I-35, with a slight risk of severe storms to the east. The main threats are large hail and damaging winds, with the potential for very large hail. The Metroplex is under a marginal risk.
