Our next severe weather risk arrives Tuesday night as an upper-level storm system and associated cold front move through North Texas.
The Storm Prediction Center placed the Dallas-Fort Worth area under a slight risk for severe thunderstorms. On a scale of 1 to 5, with 5 being the most severe risk of storms, we’re under a 2.
As storms move through late Tuesday night into Wednesday morning, damaging winds, hail and a brief tornado will be possible.
As the line of storms shifts east Wednesday morning, damaging winds will then be the primary threat.
TIMING
