Hill Country Weather with Dr Doppler
Portions of Gillespie County may see additional strong to severe thunderstorms in the coming days as unsettled weather conditions persist through the weekend.
Next week, the pattern may dry out a bit, allowing for summer to settle in with hotter daytime highs during the first full week of June.
As it stands now, the weather pattern should stay cooler than average and wetter than average through Friday and Saturday with a warming trend to follow next week.
Beyond next week, the weather pattern is expected to act a lot like early June with hot and humid weather in the forecast for the most part.
Storm chances
The forecast calls for storm chances to continue Wednesday and Wednesday night.
This part of the forecast is tricky with regard to timing.
The most likely scenario will be for late night storms to impact the Hill Country, moving across the region from the west and northwest.
Given the time of year, storms may become severe with large hail and damaging wind gusts.
If we get a few daytime storms, the storm risks remain the same with hail and strong wind gusts possible.
Frequent lightning may also occur.
The same type of weather forecast is possible Thursday and Thursday night with any storm development capable of producing some hail and strong wind gusts.
Brief heavy downpours may also occur with any storms that move through the area.
Temperatures
Temperatures should remain below average through Friday with a cold front entering the area late Thursday night or Friday morning.
This feature may push rain chances away from the local area Friday and Saturday with isolated storms returning Sunday.
Highs warm into the 80s Wednesday and Thursday with lows generally in the 60s each morning.
Our Friday cold front should keep temperatures cooler than average with a few showers and storms still possible.
North and northeast winds persist through Saturday with a return to southerly winds Sunday and Monday.
High temperatures approach 90 degrees Sunday and Monday with lows holding in the 60s.
By next Tuesday, there are signs we could see a few more clouds and perhaps a slightly higher opportunity for showers and thunderstorms.
Highs top out in the 80s with higher humidity in the forecast.
Lows at night may be a little warmer early next week with 60s and lower 70s common each morning.
