Multiple Severe Thunderstorm Warnings continue this evening for areas in west central Texas. These storms are continuing to move south at a very slow pace and will affect the I-20 corridor between Big Spring and Abilene over the next couple of hours. These storms have a history of producing very large hail, extreme winds and a few tornadoes. There are currently NO tornado warnings in effect, but that could change. Stay off the roads once these things hit your area. Keep a weather eye out this evening and be safe!!!

We have a Severe Thunderstorm Watch until 10 PM for southwest Texas. This includes the cities of Midland/Odessa, San Angelo, Marfa, and down to the Rio Grande border. We have already seen a few warnings on storms north of Marfa. The main threat will be large hail and damaging winds, up to 70 mph. Over time, we will like see a complex of storms develop and move slowly east, southeast. Due to the slow movement, flash flooding is a concern, especially in low lying areas. Stay alert to changing weather conditions!
