Stormy Wednesday Morning

Good Morning Everyone…

We had strong and severe thunderstorms roll through the area this morning with a line of storms that extended from Oklahoma to the Big Bend of Texas. With these storms the biggest threat was the winds which we saw with reports over 50 mph. A system like this is called a Derecho which is a widespread windstorm. The one good thing was that this was a very fast moving storm( moving around 35 mph to the south/southeast) and pushed through the Big Country from around 2 am and with the strongest storms existing by 6 am.

This morning we will keep in some lingering showers however most the activity has pushed through the Big Country. By the afternoon some of the cloud cover should break and we will get some sunshine with an isolated thunderstorm still possible. Highs should only make it into the upper 80’s with a few of us hitting low 90’s. Into the overnight we will see partly cloudy skies, muggy conditions and low 70’s.

Tomorrow, for our start of summer we will keep in plenty of sunshine and temperatures in the low 90’s. High pressure is on store for the rest of the week and weekend with a mix of sun and clouds and temperatures staying steady in the low 90’s with overnight lows in the low 70’s. Again, with the humidity temperatures will feel warmer so stay hydrated.

Have a good day!
