Windy, stormy week ahead for North Texas
NORTH TEXAS (CBSDFW.COM) — Get ready for a super windy Sunday as southerly winds are sustained at 20-30 mph with gusts to 45 mph.
A wind advisory has been issued from 9 a.m. Sunday until 12 a.m. Monday for most of North Texas. Temperatures will also be soaring with highs in the upper 80s for the metroplex and low 90s west of I-35.
A strong cap will be in place tomorrow, hindering storm chances, but a few may develop in the late afternoon and evening hours.
The Storm Prediction Center (SPC) has put most of North Texas under a slight risk of severe storms Monday afternoon/evening. Large hail and damaging winds are the main threats with these storms.
If the cap is broken, the storms will likely become severe. As of now, storm initiation is around 4 p.m.
Tuesday will likely be a First Alert Weather Day. The coverage of storms looks more widespread as they develop along the dry-line and move east through the evening hours. Large hail, damaging winds and tornadoes are possible.
On Wednesday, the greatest threat of severe storms is mainly east of I-35.
Thursday looks pleasant but slight rain chances creep back in Friday and another cold front heads to North Texas Saturday.
