AUSTIN, Texas — A few widely scattered strong to severe storms will be possible through this evening, mainly across the Hill Country and northern I-35 corridor. The overall storm chance is only about 20%, so not everyone will see a storm, but where they form strong winds, hail, and an isolated tornado will be possible. There is a level 2 of 5 severe weather threat from the Storm Prediction Center.
The day on Friday will be mostly to partly cloudy with highs in the 80s. There will be another opportunity for scattered strong to severe storms during the evening, mainly west of I-35. The day on Saturday is mainly dry, and then storm chances start to ramp up again Saturday night into Sunday.
We're now expecting fairly widespread rain and storms on Sunday. The rain chance is 60 percent, and this system could bring more severe weather and localized flooding. The forecast next week trends much drier, but also much hotter. High temperatures are expected to reach the mid 90s by the middle of next week.
