Severe storms brought lemon-sized hail, tornado watches and flash floods to the Texas Hill Country and Fredericksburg during Memorial Day.

With severe weather expected to sweep across parts of Texas this week, Governor Greg Abbott has directed the Texas Division of Emergency Management (TDEM) to activate state emergency response resources in preparation for severe storms and flooding.

Scattered thunderstorms and heavy rain is likely from late morning through the afternoon hours. Isolated street flooding is possible with training storms. The Storm Prediction Center has Southeast Texas in a 1/5 risk for strong wind gusts and even hail.

Lots of rain has fallen over the last 24 hours. Scattered rain will slowly come to an end overnight and leave us with a dry and partly sunny Tuesday. Pleasant temps, too! Rain chances are back in the forecast this week. Coverage looks lower than it has been and the risk for severe weather looks rather low, too.

A severe weather threat comes in from the west late Sunday night and moves across North Texas overnight before another round of severe weather is expected Monday afternoon. A severe thunderstorm watch is issued for North Texas until 5 a.

Governor Abbott activates emergency resources in Texas for severe weather threats, including potential tornadoes and flooding.

Over the next few days, we're looking at the potential for a lot of rain in a short amount of time. Showers and storms are likely this afternoon across Southeast Texas, making the Weather Prediction Center put our viewing area in a 2 out of 5 risk for excessive rainfall.

Storm surveys are underway following a night of severe weather across North Texas. As of Monday afternoon, at least one tornado has been confirmed near the City of Gordon, located about 66 miles west of Fort Worth. Gordon ISD canceled classes for the week due to extensive damage on campus from the storms.
