Early thunder on Saturday

The weekend could start off wet for many of us. Futuretrack_01022009

Low pressure in the upper atmosphere will push across Texas early Saturday. The first thunderstorms of the New Year will begin to develop after midnight. By daybreak Saturday there could be rumbling in the sky over most of the area ....an early wake-up call!

There is a slight risk some of the storms could produce large hail and damaging winds. Track the storms online with MegaDoppler 13, the most powerful radar in Houston.

Most of the moisture will move east, out of the Houston area by Saturday afternoon. At that time we could see a little clearing.

A few more showers could develop when the cool front arrives early Sunday. There won't be as much moisture in the air when the front arrives, so I'm not expecting as much rain. You'll notice the chance of rain is a lot lower on Sunday.

The north wind will blow much colder air this way on Monday. The kids will need coats when they head back to school!
