Mild temps for this time of year, highs mid-60s Monday before storm potential Christmas Eve

Two bouts of thunderstorms.. one the second half of Tuesday and another the second half of Thursday. I can’t rule out a few of these becoming strong or even severe with gusty wind and small hail being the threats. After these two systems, the upcoming weekend looks nice. Also we’ll be dealing with above-average temperatures through the period.

We’re waking up to an overcast sky and very mild temperatures for this time of the year. Readings have only fallen into the low to mid-50s. A few breaks in the clouds today are expected with afternoon highs in the low to mid 60s.

Cloud ceilings lower tonight and I can’t roll out a few scattered showers by daybreak tomorrow, especially along and east of Interstate 35. Morning lows will be very mild with readings only dipping into the mid to upper 50s.

Grab your umbrella out the door tomorrow for Christmas Eve Day. Scattered showers and thunderstorms will develop during the afternoon and slide SE through the evening hours. We do have a marginal risk for severe weather just southeast of the Dallas-Fort Worth area. Gusty wind and small hail will be the threats. Everything should be out of our area by mid evening. Afternoon highs will reach the mid 60s. If you’re heading south or east of the Dallas-Fort Worth area, try to head out before noon.
