It\u2019s been a\u00a0stormy and treacherous week<\/a> for Texas as statewide weather systems doused the state in rain and brought severe weather threats <\/a>to nearly every major metro at one time or another. But the doom and gloom is not over in North Texa<\/a>s, where forecasters warn of large hail and possibly damaging winds all weekend long.<\/p>\n

Severe storm risks <\/a>first rose in the greater Dallas-Fort Worth metro area Friday, April 24. But they\u2019ll linger over suburbs northeast of Dallas throughout the weekend. The National Weather Service says isolated pockets of large hail <\/a>are the biggest threat, which the agency defines as having a diameter of 1 inch or more.<\/p>\n

\u201cIsolated severe storms will be possible each afternoon and evening through this weekend, primarily along\/north of I-20 and along\/east of I-35,\u201d the NWS Dallas-Fort Worth office<\/a> warns. \u201cMany locations will remain dry! The primary hazards will be isolated large hail and damaging wind gusts.\u201d<\/p>\n

Dallas itself has fairly low-level thunderstorm odds, hovering around 10%. But the national agency says that storms moving across Oklahoma toward Arkansas may cross over the Texas border and hit towns northeast of the DFW metro near the Oklahoma-Arkansas-Texas border.<\/p>\n

On Saturday and Sunday, it\u2019s towns like Sherman and Paris \u2013 or as far south as Canton \u2013 that have the greatest risk of severe storm activity. Though areas from Dallas to Palestine may catch a few stray storm clouds as the system sweeps across several states heading east.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"It\u2019s been a\u00a0stormy and treacherous week for Texas as statewide weather systems doused the state in rain and…\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":265731,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[6],"tags":[820,3091,27,29,28],"class_list":{"0":"post-265730","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","5":"has-post-thumbnail","7":"category-texas","8":"tag-mysastaff","9":"tag-mysawx","10":"tag-texas","11":"tag-texas-headlines","12":"tag-texas-news"},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/265730","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=265730"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/265730\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/265731"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=265730"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=265730"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us-tx\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=265730"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
