Severe weather threat Thursday night:

Thursday will be warm and windy with light shower chances until thunderstorm chances get stronger as a cold front blasts through from 7PM-11PM.

The storms will be likely in the evening. (Copyright 2023 by KPRC Click2Houston - All rights reserved.)

The concern with the timing of this front is the strongest storms move through the rodeo right after Thursday night’s concert. You’ll want to see where the storms are on our KPRC 2 weather app, and how long you may need to wait to walk to your car if there is lightning and winds. It’s a fast moving front so you won’t have to wait too long if the storms are right on top of you.

Storms will be quickly moving through around 9PM. (Copyright 2023 by KPRC Click2Houston - All rights reserved.)

We’re tracking a strong cold front that moves through Thursday night. The dynamics of this system will create tornadoes, wind damage and hail. For us we have a lower threat than northeast Texas but there is a concern. It’s a fast moving front so we won’t get a lot of rain but fast moving systems can bring strong winds. There is also enough wind shear to create tornadoes.

Strongest storms move through at 10pm (Copyright 2022 by KPRC Click2Houston - All rights reserved.)

The severe weather threat Thursday night includes damaging winds, hail and even an isolated tornado across our far northeastern counties.

10-day forecast:

After the cold front Thursday, the cool is back Friday. This weekend’s forecast is fantastic. Next week there are two chances of rain, Tuesday with our next cold front on Thursday.

This weekend will be great! (Copyright 2023 by KPRC Click2Houston - All rights reserved.)
