Rain Chances Stick Around

Chief Meteorologist Craig Carnesi here...

There's not a whole lot for me to add to Brandon's discussion below, so this will be short and sweet.

Rain chances will continue through mid-week as the upper-level trough to our west slowly moves east. This trough with the associated upper-level low will continue to send disturbances through West Texas. Although the threat for severe thunderstorms remains low, we could see a few storms produce strong winds with small hail. Unlike the showers and storms that moved through the area last night, I expect any rain that moves through to be more isolated in nature.

Rainfall totals will all depend on where the disturbances pass and where the stronger showers form. The rain chances will only run from 40% tonight to 20% the next few days.

By Friday a ridge of high pressure looks to take control, bringing us mostly sunny, warm afternoons and clear and cool nights.

So, now that all of the meteorologist speak is done, the simple forecast from this forecaster is to go ahead and keep that umbrella with you through Thursday. After that, enjoy a pleasant weekend before our next chance of rain, next week.
