Thunderstorms Ahead:

Good Morning from Meteorologist Chris Whited...

* Rain Chances: A weak disturbance will move across tonight and could kick off an isolated storm in the west and northwest sections of the viewing area. Otherwise, the main event(s) will occur on Thursday and into Thursday night and Friday across the viewing area. Strong storm system continues to take shape out west and make its way toward the area. The dryline will develop and push into the area on Thursday and will be the focal point for the first round of showers and thunderstorms across the area. Meanwhile a cold front moves in and eventually the dryline and front will merge and will be the main area for storm development with a squall line or a mini complex of rain and thunderstorms moving across Thursday overnight and Friday morning.

* Severe Threat: The Storm Prediction Center has all of West Central Texas outlined in a "slight" risk area for severe thunderstorms on Thursday and Thursday night. The main threat should be large hail and damaging winds but we can't rule out an isolated tornado as well. Also we should mention that if the system slows some, there could be some very heavy rain which could cause some minor urban and stream flooding (what typically happens around here when we get a good rain)in spots.

* Looking Ahead: Clouds will be on the decrease on Saturday and Sunday looks nice as well with highs in the 70s across the Big Country. Weather also looks quiet going into early next week as well with highs in the 70s and low 80s.
