KVUE’s Mariel Ruiz gave an update on the tornado warning here:
A shift in the tide has begun Central Texas. The lovely weather that wooed our family and friends to venture outdoors and soak up the rays will be a bit harder to find in the days to come.
Moisture and humidity levels have climbed thanks to breezy southeasterly winds off the Gulf of Mexico. As a result, more cloud cover is seen Tuesday.
We are tracking two clusters of storms that will bring rain into the area. Our southern counties will see rain due to storms building in from the south. Our western counties will see rain due to remnant storms from Monday’s West Texas storms. Rain moves in mid-morning and will move, overall, from west to east through the afternoon.

A few storms could be on the strong side with heavy rain, gusty winds, and small hail as the main threats. Rain moves out of the area by 9 pm Tuesday. Rainfall totals for the area on Tuesday will be between one to two inches.

A mostly dry pattern continues for Wednesday and Thursday.
Better chances for rain will come Friday evening and the weekend. Weekend rain will be heavy at times. Rain totals in the next seven days are expected to be between 3 to 3.5 inches with some localized areas of over four inches. This increases our flood threat.

Stay tuned as we fine tune the weekend forecast!
The KVUE Storm Team will continue to monitor this developing forecast.
