Floods and Strong Winds

We had a very active afternoon and early evening with slow-moving thunderstorms over the Metroplex and north Texas. The heaviest rain fell across the western sections of Fort Worth and the eastern side of Dallas:

This evening the heavy rain has lingered over Kaufman County. A Flood Advisory is in effect there until 11:15pm:

A URBAN FLOOD ADVISORY continues for Tarrant County until 8:30pm

As the we get further away from the daytime heating all this activity will start to lose its intensity.  Lightning and localized flooding will remain a threat through the evening.

The cold front that sweep in this morning continues its way to the south of us. Overnight and tomorrow we'll continue to have rain chances. The Metro area has a better chance of rain in the morning than in the afternoon. Most of the storms tomorrow will be south and east of DFW. It'll be cooler (highs staying in the 80's in most places) so the storms won't be as intense:

We are finally going to break our streak of upper-90's. Morning clouds and spotty rain should keep us in the upper 80's by afternoon:

We are going to leap right back to summer in September. Monday a south wind returns and under a dome of high pressure we'll again have highs in the mid-90's. They'll be in the upper 90's on Tuesday and Wednesday. Expect some strong southwest winds on Wednesday just before a strong cold front arrives Wednesday night. Strong storms and heavy rains will come with the front, the rain chances continue into Thursday with a cool north wind:

Here is your extended forecast:

Its going to feel a little cooler around here by the end of the work week and into the weekend.
