FORECAST: Hot weekend coming up!

Rain, Y U NO come back!!!! :)

THURSDAY: UPDATE; What We're Tracking: The heat is on, possible record highs! What's Happening: We're in for several in for several days of mid-90 degree heat making it the hottest stretch of weather we've seen so far this season. The record high for tomorrow in San Antonio is 97 degrees, certainly within reach. The record high for Del Rio is 101, that record should be smashed! There's no rain in sight through the next 5-7 days but the way this spring has been so far that could change from day to day but right now it appears plain old hot and humid weather will be the rule through the weekend. The jet stream will sag a little farther south again by early next week but with no storms out there headed this way it'll just bring in some clouds and a slight drop-off in our temperatures through midweek. The jet stream will move back north again later next week leaving us with what appears to be a hot Memorial Day weekend next weekend but I'll have more in the days ahead. In the meantime, slap on the sunscreen if you're going to be outdoors, and stay hydrated! And remember, the worst is yet to come, this is only May!!!! (sorry for the bad news) Forecast: Tonight: Breezy and warm, becoming cloudy late. Low: 73 Wind: SSE 10-15+ Tomorrow: Cloudy, then mostly sunny, breezy, hot, and humid. High: 96 Wind: S 5-15+ Saturday: Partly cloudy, breezy, hot and humid. Low: 74 High: 94 Wind: SSE 10-20+ Sunday: Partly sunny, warm and humid. Low: 73 High: 91 Wind: SSE 10-15+

THURSDAY: Here's What I'm Tracking: The heat is on! What's Happening: We won't set any high temperature records but we're still in for several days of above 90 degree heat making it the hottest stretch of weather we've seen so far this season. We hit 90 yesterday, we were in the mid 90s today and we'll see highs in the mid 90s tomorrow and Saturday too. There's no rain in sight through the next 5-7 days but the way this spring has been so far that could change from day to day but right now it appears plain old hot and humid weather will be the rule through the weekend. The jet stream will sag a little farther south again by early next week but with no storms out there headed this way it'll just bring in some clouds and a slight drop-off in our temperatures through midweek.

Here's more information from the Herald Sun (newspaper I assume?) PEOPLE have been killed by "grapefruit"-size hailstones as a tornado brings down buildings in Texas. Kathy Jividen, a spokeswoman for Hood County, Texas, sheriff's office said there were "multiple fatalities" in the wake of the storm, CNN reported. Hood County Judge Darrell Cockerham said there were reports of homes being flattened with people inside. As many as 100 people have been injured by the twisters in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, said MedStar Mobile Healthcare spokesman Matt Zavadsky. Twisters reportedly touched down in the Texas counties of Tarrant, Hood, Dallas and Parker, Fox8 reported. Hood County Sheriff Roger Deeds said there have been "bad injuries … with people losing limbs." City officials were sending school buses to affected neighborhoods to help with evacuations.

WEDNESDAY: Here's What I'm Tracking: Possible early nighttime t'storms, then clearing What's Happening: While most of the threat for thunderstorms has passed there is still the possibility for some quick pop-up t'storms due to moisture and daytime heating. Keep an eye to the sky and stay tuned for any weather updates that might be coming early tonight because things could change quickly and you might get trapped underneath one of those widely scattered t'storms. Other than that it looks like smooth sailing from tomorrow through the weekend but it'll become hotter with highs in the 90s for the first time in several weeks. The Western Zone will see highs over 100 degrees tomorrow and Friday! A system scooting to our north around Sunday might clip the Hill Country Zone with a few t'storms but right now it looks like a dry weekend for everybody else. Forecast: Tonight: Possible evening t'storms, otherwise warm and muggy overnight. Low: 71 Wind: SSE 10-15+ Tomorrow: Cloudy, then mostly sunny, very warm and humid. High: 91 Wind: S 10-15+ Friday: Mostly sunny and hot. Low: 73 High: 93 Wind: SSE 5-15+

Test

Not liking the Bing radar!!!

watching the 1am version of 4news weather over at Evans Road and TPC Parkway, we have a thunderstorm over us with small hail and winds. Quite a light show

Rain gauge says a smidge less than 1.75 inches off W. Hausman not far from Pedrotti's Ranch.

lots of lightning and thunder but dry as a bone in Leon Valley. Radar shows us under a big red blob but no rain.
