Dallas Weather: Severe weather risks ahead this week
FOX 4 meteorologist Ali Turiano takes a look at what to expect for severe weather over the next few days, including hail, flooding and even a shot at a tornado.
DALLAS - Warm and humid weather will eventually lead to showers and storms in North Texas. Severe storms are also in the forecast later in the week.
A Tornado Watch was issued until 11 p.m. for areas to the north and west of DFW.
A flood watch has been issued for counties along the Red River from Tuesday morning until Thursday morning, with one to three inches of rain expected for most and up to 5 inches in some isolated spots.
Monday Forecast
According to the FOX 4 Weather team, a dry line out in West Texas will likely bring strong storms to that area on Monday night. Those storms will weaken as they reach North Texas.
Some showers and storms are still possible until about midnight, especially west of the Dallas-Fort Worth Metroplex.
A Tornado Watch was issued to the north and west of DFW.
Tuesday Forecast
Tuesday will be a lot like Monday, with lots of clouds and humid air during the day. Temperatures will remain in the 80s.
Storms could develop on Tuesday night to the west and north. Some will have a wind and hail risk.
Wednesday Forecast
The real concern is Wednesday for all of North Texas.
With little to no cap in place, storms will move into Texas and Oklahoma during the day with flood and tornado risks.
Wednesday is the day you’ll want to be weather-aware.
