Texas Dinner-Time Storm Update [Wednesday, August 20]

Isolated to scattered thunderstorms continue to move south with an outflow boundary across the Trans-Pecos, Concho Valley, east across Southeast Texas, and the Golden Triangle. Some of these storms are producing localized damaging wind gusts over 60 MPH. Dangerous cloud-to-ground lightning, locally heavy rain, and gusty winds are occurring with most activity. When thunder roars, go indoors! As we go through tonight, we’ll see activity generally diminish in coverage, but we will still experience showers and storms continuing overnight into Thursday morning across the northern Edwards Plateau, Southeast Texas, East Texas, and Northeast Texas. Tomorrow will be another active day of pop-up thunderstorms across the eastern half of Texas, down into South Texas.
