Good Morning from Morning Meteorologist Kristen Connolly…
We had a two fold weekend across the area with beautiful sunny skies Saturday changing to a stormy Sunday. An upper level low picked up some speed causing the activity to develop Sunday afternoon around the Big Country. Storms produced winds in excess of 50 mph and hail as big as quarters.
This morning the severe storms exited the area around 2 am with scattered showers continuing and heavy rainfall in our southern and eastern counties. Here in Abilene we saw near a record rainfall yesterday receiving 1.33 inches of rain just .2 on an inch shy of our 1.53 record. With the heavy amount of rain we had flash flood watches in effect until 7 am for most of the area.
This morning will be a damp start with a scattered showers, wet roads and temperatures in the lower 60’s. With daytime heating scattered showers and thunderstorms could develop again as early as late morning. With these storms we can see the possibility of heavy rainfall and again severe storms. As the low moves from south Texas to the Northeast we could see storms into the overnight and morning hours tomorrow. This system should exit by tomorrow afternoon with another one right on its heels. Temperatures will be in the mid 70’s today and tomorrow.
Wednesday and Thursday another upper level low tracks towards our region, with this next system we have the possibility to see showers and thunderstorms. Right now the track looks to be over our area this could again mean strong storms and heavy rainfall, we will definitely keep a close eye on this system as the track can change. Temperatures will be in the lower 80’s with overnight lows in the lower 60’s.
The weekend looks to be the nice with partly cloudy skies and temperatures in the mid 80’s with lows in the mid 60’s.
Have a great week!
