MORE SCATTERED RAIN 🌧️While nothing severe expected, each afternoon and evening may feature a passing downpour with some thunder and lightning. Mostly into Friday and Saturday. Rain chances dropping into next week. #txwx

[Ryan Shoptaugh @RShoptaugh]

4:55 PM - Showers and scattered thunderstorms are gradually pushing northward today. Some will fall apart. Some will survive a trip to the San Antonio area through 8 PM tonight. #txwx

JUNE HURRICANES? 🌀 Has a hurricane ever hit the US in June? Yes, but it's RARE. Only four US hurricane landfalls have been observed in June. We have had landfalling tropical storms in recent years like Tropical Storm Claudette in June 2021. #txwx

Heaviest rain into the weekend will be 'mostly' east closer to the Houston area! Expect scattered pockets of rain and storms each afternoon and evening. Highest rain either east of west of the I-35 corridor. #txwx

[Ryan Shoptaugh @RShoptaugh]

TROPICAL LOW IN THE GULF ⛈️ Good news, this stays disorganized. Wind shear will keep it weak. However, disorganized tropical lows can spread out rain everywhere! Expect clouds and scattered rain with some storms into the weekend. #txwx

[Ryan Shoptaugh @RShoptaugh]

HURRICANE SEASON BEGINS ⛈️ Stronger wind shear is forecast to be present across the Atlantic Basin creating a more hostile environment to tropical systems. This is the reason why the forecast is 'below-normal" with 13 named storms expected. #txwx

[Ryan Shoptaugh @RShoptaugh]

SCATTERED STORMS THIS WEEK ⛈️ After Wednesday, tropical amounts of moisture will be driving in from the South into the weekend. Add in daytime heat and some lift, this will touch off scattered rain and storms in the area. Not a wash out every day. #txwx

[Ryan Shoptaugh @RShoptaugh]

GAME 1 NBA FINALS 🎉Temperatures will be warm and HUMID! A slight chance at afternoon and evening coastal showers and thunderstorms that may get close to San Antonio. GO SPURS GO! #txwx

[Ryan Shoptaugh @RShoptaugh]

Regardless of the track or tropical development into the first week of June, coastal scattered downpours look likely into the end of next week. A combination of sunshine, clouds and widely scattered tropical showers across South Texas. #txwx

[Ryan Shoptaugh @RShoptaugh]

TROPICAL RAINS INTO JUNE? ☔A couple of long-range models keep signaling at something tropical pushing in from the Gulf late next week. HOWEVER, each model takes it somewhere different. One towards Florida. One closer to Louisiana and Texas. Something to watch! #txwx

[Ryan Shoptaugh @RShoptaugh]

JUNE HEAT 🔥 Afternoons will continue to trend around seasonal normal into the first week of June! Add in humidity, yeah it's going to be hot every day. No surprise! Along with daily chances for scattered storms into the first weekend of June. Get ready for summer! #txwx

[Ryan Shoptaugh @RShoptaugh]

WET SPRING ☔ San Antonio International has picked up over 13" of rain since March began! This makes it the wettest spring since 2016! After ongoing extreme drought, this is helping. Below are 'some' of the rain totals overnight. Some picked up 3-5" across the area. #txwx

[Ryan Shoptaugh @RShoptaugh]

TUESDAY NIGHT STORMS ⛈️ These storms will develop out in West Texas and Northern Mexico first and make a trip down HWY 90, Tuesday night. Very similar to the last few rounds of rain overnight. Thunder, lightning, heavy rain into Wednesday morning! #txwx

[Ryan Shoptaugh @RShoptaugh]

8:25 AM - SEVERE thunderstorm warning for southern Bexar county and is moving east this morning. Additional developing of rain and storms ahead of this line. Main threats with this storm will be strong winds with some hail. #txwx

[Ryan Shoptaugh @RShoptaugh]

FLOOD WATCH 🌧️Now, it is NOT going to be raining all day every day this weekend. However, the rounds of rain and storms that push through the region may produce ponding and flooded roadways. Stay weather aware this weekend! #txwx

[Ryan Shoptaugh @RShoptaugh]

OVERNIGHT STORMS ⛈️ Again, this will be one of a few rounds that move through over the next few days into the holiday weekend and this one occurring in the overnight hours. We may see some leftover rain, Wednesday morning. Some hail and very heavy rain possible. #txwx

#Texas rain into Memorial Day weekend! Expect rounds of scattered showers and storms over the next 7 days as we approach the holiday. The first round will be late Tuesday night. Additional rounds of rain will form into Saturday and Sunday. #txwx

[Ryan Shoptaugh @RShoptaugh]

HOLIDAY WEEKEND RAIN? 🌧️ The days leading up to Mother's Day will be a little active! A coastal low will help produce scattered rain Thursday, Friday and Saturday. This rain should move out by Saturday night leading to a nice Mother's Day for Texas! #txwx
