Gearing up for a very active, stormy Mother’s Day Weekend across Central and Southeast Texas. This latest cold front has washed out along Coastal Texas, allowing warm, Gulf air to filter more moisture into the atmosphere this weekend. That, combined with sunshine, temperatures return to the lower-to-middle 80s across the Brazos Valley Saturday and Sunday. With the atmospheric moisture available, we could tap into a few isolated showers and storms during Saturday and Sunday afternoons, but the chance is 20-30% in coverage for the Brazos Valley. We’ll try a pull additional moisture from the upper levels of the atmosphere for better storm chance from mid-to-late weekend.
For now, Friday night into Saturday morning brings a possible chance for scattered showers and thunderstorms, but like the past several storm chances, this round is conditional, meaning it remains possible we could see storm development. If storms cannot break the “cap” on the atmosphere and tap into that atmospheric energy, storm chances are limited through early Saturday. The NWSSPC has tagged the Brazos Valley for a 1 out of 5 (marginal) risk for severe weather Saturday, with gusty winds and hail being the largest concerns locally. A second chance for widespread showers and storms is possible Sunday evening into Monday morning, as another cold front slides into Southeast Texas. Sunday night brings an 80% chance for widespread rainfall. Flooding could become a concern, so use caution on local roadways. Overall, I think the better chance for weekend storms comes late Sunday into Monday for the Brazos Valley, so stay weather aware the next few days.
