Forecast Discussion:
Several rounds of heavy rainfall are expected as we head into the weekend across Southeast and Central Texas. Moisture and cloud cover will continue to build over the Brazos Valley through midweek, signaling increasing rain chances. Wednesday brings a brief 20% chance of isolated showers and thunderstorms across the Brazos Valley. However, stronger storms are expected to develop across Central and West Texas by Wednesday evening ahead of an approaching cold front. Thursday offers the best chance for widespread rain as this system moves through the state. A line of storms is expected to reach the northern Brazos Valley shortly after sunrise, lingering through midday. Periods of heavy, beneficial rainfall are likely before the system weakens farther south. The Thursday morning commute could be impacted, so plan for wet roads and keep an umbrella handy.

Another system arrives Saturday as a cold front pushes through Texas, bringing a line of widespread showers and thunderstorms. Saturday afternoon and evening could bring the potential for severe weather locally, which may impact Easter weekend plans. By Sunday, any lingering rain will occur behind the front, with a cooler and more stable air mass in place—meaning severe weather is no longer expected. This front will also bring a noticeable drop in temperatures, with highs falling from the 80s late week to the mid-70s Saturday and into the 60s by Sunday. Morning lows early next week will settle into the 60s, ushering in a cooler and quieter pattern.
