FORECAST
Mother’s Day is shaping up to be a sunny and hot day, with temperatures soaring into the low-90s. However, as the sun sets, a cold front will move in, leading to the potential for severe storms later in the evening.
Here’s what you need to know about the weather on Sunday night:
From 9 PM to 2 AM, the Storm Prediction Center has issued a Level 3 (out of 5) risk for severe storms in parts of the Hill Country and the Austin Metro Area, while the San Antonio Metro area is under a Level 2 risk. It’s important to stay alert during this time.
Severe risk is highest in the Hill Country, but we’ll all need to be on alert for severe storms from 9 PM to 2 AM.
The storms could bring strong winds, quarter-sized hail, and heavy rainfall that might lead to brief street flooding. It’s essential to be prepared for these possible impacts.
SEVERE STORM POTENTIAL IMPACTS
The most significant threat from these storms is damaging winds, which could reach speeds of 70 mph or more. Such winds can cause power outages and damage trees and branches. While we can’t predict exactly where the strongest winds will hit, you can take steps today to prepare for this possibility.
