Sunday: Another round of storms, few strong or severe - KBTX

BRYAN, Tex. (KBTX) - After large hail impacted parts of the Brazos Valley Saturday afternoon, another round of strong-to-severe storms remains possible Sunday morning.

The Storm Prediction Center has extended the ENHANCED RISK (Level 3 of 5) further west to include areas west of I-45 to the Highway 6 corridor to include Bryan and College Station. The rest of the Brazos Valley remains under the SLIGHT RISK (Level 2 of 5).

All types of severe weather will need to be monitored:

• Damaging wind gusts over 60 mph
• Hail larger than limes or breakfast eggs
• Isolated tornado.

Our greatest concerns Sunday will be with the large hail and damaging winds but an isolated tornado cannot be ruled out. The reason for this is the fact that there is a warm front expected to be draped across the area or move just north of the Brazos Valley. This can enhance winds turning back out of the southeast which adds a little more spin to the lower levels of the atmosphere. Again, not our biggest concern, but cannot be ruled out.

It is a day to stay weather aware. IF storms can develop and tap into the favorable atmosphere to support storms, some could quickly become strong to severe. It is not a guarantee that every storm that develops tomorrow will be severe, but each one will bear watching. By far and large, the biggest storms of the day are expected to be east of the Brazos Valley into the lower Mississippi Valley.

Timing
Light rain to a few thunderstorms had already formed in and near the Brazos Valley before sunrise.

By mid-morning, clusters of storms may try to develop across the south and southwestern Brazos Valley. Any isolated storm that manages to stay separated from the bigger clusters will need to be monitored for the larger hail potential and isolated tornado threat.

By Noon, any ongoing storms are expected east of I-45 and south of Hwy 105 and 290. Essentially, the bulk of the day's activity is expected in the eastern and southern reaches of the Brazos Valley by midday.

After 1 pm to 2pm, the concern for severe weather is over locally and storms are expected to sit east of the Brazos Valley.

It is important to have multiple resources to receive severe weather alerts. One helpful tool to have warnings and watches sent to your phone is the KBTX PinPoint Weather App.
