A National Weather Service (NWS) report warns of possible severe storms in portions of Texas this week, bringing flash flood risk and flooding. People with travel activities or plans should carefully consider the weather to avoid potential road dangers.
In early June, parts of Texas and the Western US experienced unusual heat, which caused heat advisories and risks. Due to favorable conditions for fires to spread, wildfire risks were also reported.
Weather conditions are expected to improve in parts of Texas, potentially relieving recent intense heat. However, another concern for Texas residents is the return of severe weather conditions.
Weather outlook in Texas: Where will severe storms unload?
According to a weather report for June 11 to June 13, the latest weather report reveals potential additional storms in the Gulf Coast and portions of Texas this week. In Central Texas, there could be a risk of flash floods and rain showers.
Meanwhile, showers and thunderstorms are likely in the northern and central Plains this week. The forecast also monitors the development of a system in the Upper Midwest, which could bring potential storms and showers on Tuesday.
NWS Austin / San Antonio warns of isolated storm in Austin this week. The main concerns in the region are gusty winds, occasional lightning, and locally heavy downpours. Additionally, thunderstorm outflow is likely in the region, particularly over the Coastal Plains, and winds are expected to reach 30 to 35 mph in some areas.
In addition, an NWS Weather Prediction Center raised concerns over an excessive rainfall outlook for June 11 to June 13. From Florida to the Caribbean, there is a risk of flooding concerns.
This week, homeowners in the Texas Panhandle, South Plains, and North Texas should know about flash flood potential.

On Tuesday, a severe thunderstorm potential is expected to hit the following areas:
