The atmosphere over Texas is typical of middle spring. High humidity, due to a steady flow of Gulf moisture, is in place. This produces moderate instability that can produce showers and thunderstorms any time of day.

Most of these storms are dependent on passing upper disturbances, since surface boundaries are lacking. This makes specific times and locations for storms very tricky to forecast, as storm evolution is often dependent on the effects of previous storms.

With that in mind, the next few days will follow a similar pattern: morning clouds with afternoon sunshine and breezy, warm conditions. Showers and thunderstorms are most likely in the late afternoon and evening, but overnight storm clusters are also possible.

Afternoon highs today will be in the 80s north, middle 80s central and low 90s for South Texas.

Strong storms are possible with large hail and damaging wind gusts. Rain chances are lower — but still in the forecast — through the upcoming weekend. Temperatures will be unchanged.
