Once again, a few showers and isolated thunderstorms will be possible this evening and overnight. The risk for severe weather is low but winds up to 60 mph and hail up to the size of quarters are possible with any stronger storms that can develop. Flooding/flash flooding will be the primary hazard with the rain tonight. Last night's/this morning's rain resulted in flooding for areas near I-30 and the Red River; this will again be possible. Temperatures overnight will drop into the low 70s for areas that receive the rain; everyone else will be in the mid to upper 70s overnight. By daybreak Wednesday, the chance for rain will be ending, and the forecast then looks dry through the end of the week. High temperatures will remain in the 90s, nearing 100-degrees by early next week. Our next chance for rain may not arrive until 4th of July weekend - your first alert to the chance. That said, we're still about 10 days away from the 4th, and things are likely to chance between now and then.
Weather headlines:
-an extreme heatwave continues overseas
-severe storms and flooding remain a threat across parts of the Plains, Midwest, and South
