TONIGHT: Potential to see faint Aurora Borealis in parts of South Texas if away from city lights
FRIDAY NIGHT UPDATE:
A strong geomagnetic storm Friday night is allowing the Aurora Borealis to be seen across a good chunk of the country and even in parts of South Texas! If away from city lights, look out to the north to see if you can spot a glow in the sky. Note that phone cameras are likely to pick them up better than the naked eye.
WEATHER HEADLINES:
• Not as hot Mother's Day Weekend, highs in the low-to-mid 80s
• Few sprinkles, an isolated shower Saturday
• Not a washout, but a few showers & storms possible Saturday night - Sunday
FORECAST DETAILS:
Made it to the weekend!
After a slightly more tolerable morning with lows in the upper 60s, Saturday features mostly cloudy skies and highs in the low-to-mid 80s. A few sprinkles or an isolated shower can't be ruled out, but coverage should generally be low.
That could change for a few of us Saturday night and into Mother's Day as scattered showers and a few storms try to develop. Right now chances sit at about 40%, so it won't be a washout, but check back with us if stepping out to any brunch plans with mom! Odds currently favor the first half of Sunday to find some of this activity, before trending drier into the afternoon. We'll keep you posted! And while it isn't an overwhelming chance, we'll also be keeping tabs on any storm that develops for the low-end potential to see it become strong.
After that, isolated storm chances continue at times next week with more humidity and a warming trend taking back over. More updates on that to come in the days ahead! ~ Mia
