DISCUSSION

Issued at 1006 PM CDT Sat May 9 2026

The main weather concern through the forecast period or through next week will be the chance for another round of showers and thunderstorms Sunday night into Monday morning. Forecast models and ensembles continue to depict a cold front sweeping through all of Deep South Texas and the Rio Grande Valley Sunday night into Monday morning. This cold front combined with a strong mid-level shortwave trough and elevated atmospheric moisture content will yield increased chances for showers and thunderstorms Sunday night into Monday morning.

Some of these thunderstorms could become strong to severe with the primary threats being damaging winds, large hail, along with heavy rainfall that could result in localized flooding. The Storm Prediction Center (SPC) has placed the entire area under a Marginal (Level 1 of 5) Risk for severe thunderstorms Sunday night into Monday.

Outside of the chances for showers and thunderstorms Sunday night into Monday, expect for rain-free weather conditions to prevail through next week.

Temperatures are expected to run normal to warmer than normal through the period. High temperatures will range from the upper 80s to the mid 90s with the hottest temperatures west of IH-69C. Overnight low temperatures will mainly be in the 70s through the forecast period.
