Weather Forecast Details

General Discussion:
A couple of tropical systems near Mexico are responsible for pumping moisture and rain chances into parts of Texas. South and West Texas will be impacted most with numerous showers and thunderstorms. A drier and hotter trend is in store later this week, with 100-degree temperatures set to return for much of Texas over the holiday weekend.

Today:
Numerous showers and thunderstorms will impact South Texas today, especially in the Rio Grande Valley. Rain should spread northward this afternoon, with a good chance of showers and thunderstorms in or near the San Antonio metro. Any precipitation that develops between Austin and Houston will be isolated, with less overall impact than the past several days. Scattered showers and thunderstorms will also increase across much of West Texas this afternoon into evening. A line of storms could develop over southern Oklahoma this afternoon, then drop south into North Texas this evening. In other words, most of the ERCOT system has a rain chance today. High temperatures this afternoon will be within a degree of yesterday in the large cities, while West Texas will trend several degrees cooler with more rain impacts. Low to mid-90s will be common across the state this afternoon. Rio Grande Valley locations won't get out of the 80s. Lows tonight will be mostly in the 70s across Texas.

Tomorrow:
Not a big change from today's conditions. South and West Texas will continue to see rain impacts, but the heavier precipitation will shift west (increasing over southern Far West Texas on Tuesday). The rest of the state will continue to trend drier, with no more than isolated precipitation. Highs tomorrow will again be mostly in the low to mid-90s, but those with most significant rain impacts could top out in the 80s.
