Dangerous storms move over West Texas

Storms are becoming more prolific across western Texas and will continue to move eastward as a dry line slowly moves east. The main threats will be large hail and tornadoes to impact anywhere from Lubbock through Odessa. While a few storms will also affect parts of the Metroplex throughout the evening hours.

Ample warmth and heat will increase the risk of severe storms across the Texas Panhandle on Sunday afternoon. From Odessa through Lubbock storms will become more intense Sunday afternoon. The Oklahoma Panhandle could also experience severe weather as a low-pressure over the surface combined with an upper-level trough will sweep by.

We are also closely monitoring the development of severe weather early on Monday across much of Oklahoma and North Texas, including the Metroplex (Dallas-Fort Worth area), Oklahoma City, and Tulsa, Okla. Storms that have been brewing late afternoon on Sunday across western Texas, will move east relatively fast. By midnight some severe storms will be possible across San Antonio, Waco, and some nearing the Metroplex area.
