Scattered Storms Expected to Make a Comeback This Evening

Residents of Brazos Valley are anticipating rain for the first time in over a month. This evening, scattered storms are expected to return as a cold front approaches.
Forecast Overview
Authorities forecast the arrival of scattered thunderstorms over the Brazos Valley tonight. While the risk of severe storms is notably higher in the northeastern regions, some local areas may still experience strong winds reaching 50 mph.
Storm Timing and Expected Conditions
- Storms will start in the northern counties around 6 PM.
- They will likely clear out of the southern counties by 11 PM.
- The highest potential for severe weather will precede the front.
Most areas missed out on rainfall yesterday. However, today presents the best chance for precipitation since over 40 days. This weather is linked to a cold front passing through Texas, with the Ark-La-Tex region facing a higher risk level.
Severe Weather Potential
- The likelihood of strong storms exists, primarily before the front.
- Potential hazards include gusty winds and possibly small hail.
- Though heavy rain may cause ponding, it’s unlikely to result in flooding.
The Path Ahead
Following the weather front, expect an influx of drier air, giving a fall-like atmosphere. However, this won’t last long as onshore flow is projected to return by Monday afternoon, reverting conditions to a more spring-like state. The forecast suggests multiple fronts might affect temperatures over the next few days, as another system is anticipated by midweek.
Residents should stay informed of evolving weather conditions as initial measurable rain is expected. Previous dry conditions may change quickly, so keep watchful eyes on updates. Stay connected with Emegypt for the latest.
