AUSTIN, Texas — The severe weather threat for Central Texas is now coming to an end. A brief Tornado Warning was issued late Friday evening for parts of Bastrop and Fayette counties, but this batch of storms is now in the process of moving out of the KVUE area to the east.

Sunday will be sunny and dry, but very windy with wind gusts up to 40 mph possible.
