Most storms will NOT be severe, but there could be one or two storms that reach severe limits. That means wind gusts to 60 mph, and a brief tornado is possible given the wind shear in place. The Storm Prediction Center has the western Big Bend in a marginal risk for this reason.<\/p>\n

\"AA few heavy storms are possible this afternoon.(WCTV)<\/p>\n

Storms will be in the eastern Big Bend by late morning and should wrap up by 4 or 5 p.m. This means everyone should be drying out by the end of today. Rain totals between 0.25\u2033 and 0.75\u2033, some higher totals possible in a few spots. <\/p>\n

Invest 98L is expected to reach the Caribbean Sea. The National Hurricane Center has a 50% chance of development over the next 7 days. <\/p>\n

Long-range models are not too concerning right now. Trends are keeping the disturbance in the Caribbean. We will get help from a cold front that will stall in the Gulf next week, deflecting it from reaching the Gulf at all. I will keep my eyes on Invest 98L for any changes.<\/p>\n
