Work Week Cold Front?

Isolated showers and thunderstorms are possible almost every afternoon for the next week, or so. However, rain chances will become more widespread by Tuesday night, as a cold front moves into west Texas.

Initially, highest rain chances will remain across the southern Texas Panhandle and northern South Plains. Though, as the front continues to move southward, and eventually stall across the region, rain chances well increase area-wide.

Due to very high moisture levels, increased lift along the cold front, and several upper-level disturbances, heavy rain and strong thunderstorms will be possible Wednesday and Thursday. At this time, it is still too soon to predict specific rainfall amounts or  when the heaviest rain will fall. Though, it does appear that after a couple weeks of relatively calm conditions, an unsettled weather pattern will return by mid- week.
