November will be going out on the active side weather-wise in Texas. A conditional threat for scattered severe storms with a tornado risk will exist late this morning through the afternoon in the Coastal Plains, Brazos Valley, Southeast Texas, into the Golden Triangle. Today’s most likely time window will be between 11 AM and 6 PM, though there’s a chance it may go a bit later in the Golden Triangle (Beaumont area).

It isn’t a guarantee we’ll see issues with tornadoes today, but the threat is certainly there – especially if the low levels of the atmosphere can destabilize. Showers and storms are likely this afternoon into this evening across the eastern third of Texas, with the chance for rain and perhaps a rain/snow mix in the Texas Panhandle. Only minor snow accumulations, if any, are expected this afternoon.

We may see brief periods of heavier rains for the eastern third of Texas. The threat of stronger storms will be highest closer to the Upper Texas Gulf Coast. Storms with a localized flooding threat may continue into Friday morning across the Upper Texas Coast and the Golden Triangle.

After rains exit Texas on Friday, we’ll see several days of mostly dry weather to start off December across Texas. High temperatures over the next five days will average from the upper 50s into the middle 70s. Today will be cold in the Panhandle, with highs in the 30s and 40s, while the Rio Grande Valley will top out in the middle 80s.
