00:00Well, we are still tracking some potential for severe weather, not just through tonight as the storms rumble south.
00:06But looking ahead to Wednesday, we're going to be looking ahead with this forecast a little bit beyond what we've
00:11been focusing on in the short term.
00:13Wednesday, we're not done.
00:14The severe threat pushes a little farther south, so parts of Texas, even including the hill country,
00:19where there's that risk of flash flooding, damaging wind and hail.
00:23There are no strangers to hail there.
00:24But especially east into east Texas, Louisiana, southern parts of Mississippi, southern Alabama, the western part of the Florida panhandle.
00:31Some degree of severe weather threat still with us Wednesday and Wednesday night, even beyond what we're facing tonight, a
00:37little farther to the north.
00:38So through Wednesday, showers and storms will be rumbling in many of these areas.
00:41Some of these storms will be severe.
00:44And again, the risk is present, but it's not as high as it was earlier in the week.
00:49Some of the areas that have seen the tremendous hail today up in areas like southwest Missouri.
00:54We've had reports of over three-inch diameter hail, like the size of a fist, pretty much.
00:59We're dealing with cooler, drier, more stable air in parts of the Ozark Plateau.
01:04So let's take a look at future radar and clouds.
01:07Some of this, just touching on the southeast as well, this is actually some good news in the southeast where
01:11we need some of that rain as well.
01:14So on Wednesday afternoon, here we are, 4 p.m. central time, showers and storms.
01:18Some of these could be hailers into the hill country, I should say, and then areas near maybe Tyler and
01:25Longview, scattered thunderstorms, rumbles of thunder, and some of that rain will be relatively heavy into parts of Louisiana, nosing
01:32into Mississippi.
01:33That's 4 p.m. Wednesday.
01:34Let's go deeper into time.
01:36Beneficial rain, some drought relief in parts of the southeast.
01:39And then a new episode breaks out into the southern plains behind this.
01:42This is Thursday now.
01:44And we're also beginning to see some snow break out into the southern Rockies.
01:47But showers, periods of rain into Dallas, and some scattered thunderstorms a little farther southeast.
01:53We're going to get cooler and more stable in some of these areas to the north with just widespread rain
01:58and limited thunderstorm potential up into Oklahoma.
02:02And look at the snow taking over in the Sangre de Cristo Mountains there, southern Colorado and northern New Mexico.
02:07So Thursday, a big swath of rain, cooler, almost chilly at night, into the interior mid-south, the interior south,
02:15or some call it the mid-south there,
02:17into areas like western Tennessee, Kentucky, parts of Missouri, Arkansas, farther south, showers and storms.
02:23And again, we're dealing with some rain in central Texas and some beneficial rain into south Georgia,
02:29where we've had some wildfires and so forth as well.
02:32So some of these areas will face some rain and thunderstorm potential.
02:36Others are going to be facing mainly just rain.
02:39A quick look at the rainfall amounts, 1 to 2 inches for some, 2 to 4 inches farther west into
02:43central Texas and other areas as well.
