Two lines of storms will converge over North Texas on Thursday morning from 8 a.m. to 1 p.m. There is an isolated severity for strong wind, but the bigger concern is flash flooding.
Storms that formed in the Panhandle on Wednesday night formed into a line of storms that were just east of Wichita Falls and Abilene early Thursday. These storms have had a history of producing strong winds and a few brief spin-up Tornado Warnings. Heavy rain and a lot of noise are the threats. Many areas will see 1-2 inches of rain, with isolated higher totals possible. Temperatures will hover in the 70s all day long.
Another area of storms may encroach on the area Friday morning. Morning lows will dip into the mid-60s.
If the storms in West Texas hold together overnight, they will arrive Friday morning in a non-severe state. Most of Friday looks pretty decent with highs near 80 degrees with some sunshine.
A cold front will stall north of the area on Saturday, producing more showers and storms throughout the day. Interstate 20 is a good line to draw that will divide rain to the north and no rain to the south. This front will lift back to the north on Sunday, giving us a partly cloudy afternoon with highs warming into the middle 80s.
Monday and Tuesday will be nice and warm. Afternoon highs will reach the low to mid-80s each day with morning clouds and afternoon sun. It'll also be very humid and breezy.
Our next weather system arrives late Tuesday and may last at least through Thursday, with more scattered storms possible; some of these may become severe.
