URGENT - IMMEDIATE BROADCAST REQUESTED
Severe Thunderstorm Watch Number 637
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
215 PM CST Sun Nov 23 2025

The NWS Storm Prediction Center has issued a

* Severe Thunderstorm Watch for portions of
West Texas

* Effective this Sunday afternoon and evening from 215 PM until
1000 PM CST.

* Primary threats include...
Scattered large hail and isolated very large hail events to 2
inches in diameter possible
Isolated damaging wind gusts to 70 mph possible
A tornado or two possible

SUMMARY...Thunderstorms are expected to develop over the next few
hours from the Permian Basin into the Pecos Valley. Strong vertical
shear overlapping modest buoyancy is expected to support initial
supercells, with large hail as the primary risk. A few strong gusts
and a brief tornado are possible as well. A trend towards a more
linear mode is anticipated with time, but the threat for isolated
hail and damaging gusts will likely persist through the evening.

The severe thunderstorm watch area is approximately along and 85
statute miles east and west of a line from 70 miles north northeast
of Big Spring TX to 75 miles east southeast of Fort Stockton TX. For
a complete depiction of the watch see the associated watch outline
update (WOUS64 KWNS WOU7).

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

REMEMBER...A Severe Thunderstorm Watch means conditions are
favorable for severe thunderstorms in and close to the watch area.
Persons in these areas should be on the lookout for threatening
weather conditions and listen for later statements and possible
warnings. Severe thunderstorms can and occasionally do produce
tornadoes.

11/23/2025

A Flood Watch is in effect tonight through Monday across much of North Texas, generally along and north of I-20. Rainfall totals of 1 to 3 inches, with isolated amounts up to 4 inches, could cause flooding in some areas.

11/13/2025

Monitoring the potential for showers and a few thunderstorms to return to North Texas by midweek. Stay tuned for updates as the forecast evolves.

🥶 North & Central Texas Freeze Watch!
Heads up everyone — a Freeze Watch is in effect from 9 PM Sunday to 9 AM Monday!
🌡️ Temps could drop as low as 26°F, so this will be the coldest night of the season so far for many areas across North and Central Texas — including the DFW metro!

✅ What to do:
• Protect sensitive plants 🌱
• Bring pets indoors 🐾
• Bundle up for that Monday morning commute! 🧣🧤

Winter vibes are arriving early — who’s ready for it? 🥶❄️

11/07/2025

🥶 Big Weather Changes Ahead for North & Central Texas! 🌬️
Enjoy the warmth while it lasts — highs in the 70s and 80s Friday and Saturday will give way to a sharp cold front Sunday. Expect gusty winds (25–35 mph) and a major temperature drop heading into Monday.

By early next week, we’ll be waking up to the coldest air of the season so far, with lows dipping into the upper 20s and low 30s Monday morning. ❄️

👉 Bundle up for the morning commute
🐾 Bring pets inside
🌿 Protect sensitive plants

Fall is about to feel a lot more like winter!

10/29/2025

Bundle up, North Texas!
Cold air is settling in tonight with temps dropping fast. A Freeze Warning and Frost Advisory are in effect from 4 AM to 9 AM Thursday for much of our western counties.

🌡️ Freeze Warning: Lows near 31°, especially in low-lying areas.
🌾 Frost Advisory: Temps dipping to around 33° — so cover up those plants and bring in pets!

Winter vibes are making an early appearance!

..FLOOD WATCH IN EFFECT FROM FRIDAY EVENING THROUGH SATURDAY
AFTERNOON...

* WHAT...Flooding caused by excessive rainfall is possible.

* WHERE...Portions of North and Central Texas along and east of the
I-35 corridor.

* WHEN...From Friday evening through Saturday afternoon.

* IMPACTS...Excessive runoff may result in flooding of rivers,
creeks, streams, and other low-lying and flood-prone locations.
Flooding may occur in poor-drainage and urban areas. Creeks and
streams may rise out of their banks.

* ADDITIONAL DETAILS...
- Rainfall totals of 2 to 3 inches, with isolated higher
amounts between 4 to 5 inches.

PRECAUTIONARY/PREPAREDNESS ACTIONS...

You should monitor later forecasts and be alert for possible Flood
Warnings. Those living in areas prone to flooding should be prepared
to take action should flooding develop.

Mesoscale Discussion 2150
NWS Storm Prediction Center Norman OK
0923 AM CDT Sat Oct 18 2025

Areas affected...parts of north central Texas...eastern
Oklahoma...northwestern Arkansas...southwestern Missouri

Concerning...Severe potential...Watch likely

Valid 181423Z - 181630Z

Probability of Watch Issuance...80 percent

SUMMARY...The gradual evolution of an increasingly organized line of
storms appears probable through 11 AM to 1 PM CDT. Stronger storms
may initially pose a risk for marginally severe hail, before
potentially damaging wind gusts and perhaps a couple of tornadoes
become a more prominent concern. It appears probable that one or
more severe weather watches will be needed, though how soon remains
a bit uncertain.

DISCUSSION...While the boundary layer remains relatively cool, a
moistening southerly return flow characterized by mid 60s+ F surface
dew points is contributing to increasing potential instability in a
corridor across the southern Great Plains into portions of the Ozark
Plateau.
This is occurring as mid-level forcing for ascent downstream of a
notable short wave trough begins to spread across the Interstate 35
corridor of Oklahoma and north central Texas, supporting an
expanding area of convective development and embedded thunderstorm
activity.

As the forcing for ascent continues to spread northeastward/eastward
over the next few hours, and insolation within the warm sector
contributes to erosion of inhibition for boundary-layer parcels, a
gradual intensification of storms appears probable. In the presence
of strengthening deep-layer shear, as a 50-60+ kt southwesterly jet
around 500 mb noses across the Red River vicinity, the evolution of
an increasingly organized squall line appears possible by 17-18Z, if
not a bit earlier.
