Spotty showers and storms are developing as moisture moves in from the Rio Grande Valley.

As of now, no severe storms have been reported in Central Texas.

This means residents should begin preparing for the potential of stormy conditions starting Tuesday.

Weather Alert Day: Central Texas Experiences Initial Storm Activity

If you commute to work, consider leaving earlier in the morning or heading home a bit sooner to avoid potentially hazardous road conditions. While hailstorms have not yet returned to the region, the biggest threat this week is large hail. Much of Central Texas falls within a 15% risk area for hail, meaning there is a possibility of hailstones two inches in diameter or larger.
