The week-long rain event is finally winding down as we start a new week. The risk of severe storms lingers for Monday across north Texas, but most other areas will see drier weather.

A Marginal (1 of 5) risk is expected for the Dallas/Fort Worth area with a Slight (2 of 5) risk covering the Red River counties Monday afternoon.

Large hail, damaging winds and isolated tornadoes are possible.

By Tuesday, upper-level high pressure establishes over Texas. This should take rain chances much lower, but not eliminated altogether. That pattern will also crank up the heat.

By Tuesday and Wednesday, north Texas will see highs around 90; central Texas will measure to the middle and upper 90s. Highs in the 90s and 100s expected for south Texas and the Rio Grande Plains.

A fairly strong cold front sweeps southward Thursday with highs dropping into the 70s and 80s by the weekend.

South Texas missing out on storms

While most of Texas expects strong and severe storms through Sunday, little if any impact is expected for the LRGV, Coastal Bend and the El Paso region.

After morning fog, a few thunderstorms are possible for the coast Sunday afternoon. Otherwise, mostly cloudy and breezy.
