Low chance (less than 20%) of an isolated strong/severe storm this afternoon. Additional storms possible tomorrow with the potential for severe storms generally east of I-35. Windy and much drier behind the dryline resulting in an elevated fire weather threat. #dfwwx #ctxwx #txwx

Do yourself a favor and spend some time outside today. As a whole, it'll be (by far) the prettiest of the next 7. At least we'll be mild again tomorrow. But the rain chances will be back with us, especially after lunch on Saturday. #etxwx #txwx

Are you traveling for the holidays? Make sure to winterize your home before you leave! The coldest temperatures of the season so far are likely to arrive next week behind Thursday's front. Just how cold it'll get remains a bit uncertain, but teens/20s are looking likely. #txwx

A New Tornado Watch has been issued for eastern North Texas, southern North Texas, and East Texas until 5pm. Still expect storms to clear out of DFW in the next 1-2hrs and out of NTX by mid-afternoon. Once the line passes, you are done with storms today. #wfaaweather

Before it gets windy, prepare your home! Trim trees and repair loose siding and shutters. weather.gov/safety/wind-befo… #WeatherReady

Never plug a #generator directly into your home. Transfer switches are the only way to safely power your electrical system. Using a transfer switch prevents backfeeding, which occurs when your generator becomes a power source for the surrounding area: bit.ly/3QsPX4q
