    There will be recurring chances for storms most days next week, peaking around mid week. Some details will need to come into better focus as we get closer, but we'll monitor strong/severe storm potential along with where rain chances are locally higher each day. #phwx #txwx #okwx

    As morning showers and storms clear out, temperatures will warm back into the 80s today. Additional showers could form across the east, but the better area to watch for storm chances will be the western Panhandles for activity moving out of New Mexico. #phwx #txwx #okwx

    Thunderstorms are moving slowly north this morning. The main hazard with these storms is heavy to very heavy rain which may result in localized flash flooding. While the chance is low, cannot rule out some small hail. #txwx #phwx

    Storm chances are expected to ramp up later tonight across the E Texas Panhandle and persist well into early Fri morning. These storms can strengthen into strong to severe t-storms during this time frame with large hail & flooding the primary threat. #phwx #txwx #okwx
    The graphic calls for a return of showers and thunderstorms today, with the highest potential in the Southeastern Texas Panhandle. Developing storms have the potential to be strong or severe, with activity expected between 1 AM and 7 AM Friday. The most likely hazards are heavy rainfall, and frequent lightning, but large hail remains possible if a storm can become severe.

    Any storms that develop today will have the ability to produce heavy downpours, which could pose a localized flash flooding risk. This is especially true of the SE TX Panhandle which has 10-40% probabilities to exceed 1" of rainfall by tomorrow morning. #phwx #txwx #okwx

    Tropical Storm Andrew is expected to push inland across the gulf coast later this week, which could result in impacts to travel. If you are planning to head that way make sure to check with the @NHC_Atlantic as well as local forecast offices to get the latest weather information.
