HOUSTON – After last week’s tornado outbreak, we’re now tracking another severe weather threat. Thankfully this system isn’t as intense, lacking the same level of instability and wind shear. Wind shear is the change in winds and direction with height, it is a key ingredient to produce tornado genesis.

However, Sunday’s storms still carry enough energy to produce severe weather. Instead of numerous tornadoes, the greater risk is for frequent lightning strikes and damaging winds.
Although all of the area has a threat, the largest threat is northeast of Houston. Locations like Huntsville, Conroe, Livingston, and Liberty should stay especially weather-aware.
Timing looks to bring the line of storms through Houston from noon- 4 p.m. and reach the coast from 3 p.m. -7 p.m. This timing can and will change as we get closer to Sunday. Cold fronts are known to speed up so if we see changes in timing, 80% of the time it will happen a little earlier.
Stay weather-aware Sunday afternoon! If you see any storms in your area and you can safely snap a photo, send it to Click2Pins.
