TEXAS, USA — There is a severe thunderstorm watch in effect for Kimble county eastward until 11 p.m. Large hail looks to be the main threat, followed gusty winds, and an isolated tornado cannot be ruled out.
Be sure to stay weather aware - especially folks in the Hill Country.
It was a hottest day of the year so far in San Angelo with a high of 100° F. However, Friday will be a lot cooler once the cold front is moving through West Central Texas. The same front will be the focus for widespread rainfall Saturday.
With a cold front to our south, warm moist air will ride over the cold air mass and bring rounds of rain across West Texas. It won't be raining all day everywhere, but you can expect some pockets of heavy rainfall. Some folks could see over an inch of rainfall on Saturday.
While the rain is beneficial, a large amount of rain in a short period of time could lead to some flooding of low lying areas. Remember to stay weather aware Saturday.
After a rainy Saturday, the rest of the 7-day forecast looks to stay fairly comfortable. I do not know about you, but I am certainly looking forward to the much cooler temperatures.
