Fort Worth, Texas – Much of North and Central Texas will face a stormy Memorial Day weekend as a cold front moves in Sunday afternoon, bringing strong to severe thunderstorms, locally heavy rainfall, and a risk of flooding through Monday evening.
According to the National Weather Service in Fort Worth, isolated storms will continue daily through Thursday, with highs in the low to mid-80s and overnight lows in the 60s across cities like Dallas, Waco, Sherman, and Palestine. The greater threat arrives late Sunday as a stronger front sweeps south, triggering widespread storms capable of producing hail, damaging winds, and localized flooding.
Outdoor plans from DFW to Killeen could be impacted. Numerous storms are expected Sunday evening across areas including Graham, Cisco, and Waco, pushing south into Killeen and Palestine by Monday. Residents should monitor alerts and remain weather-aware, particularly if traveling on I-35 or planning Memorial Day events outdoors.
Prepare now by securing loose outdoor items, charging mobile devices, and identifying shelter options. Storm intensity may vary, but flash flooding and wind damage remain key concerns.
Storms are forecast to exit the region Monday night. Additional updates and warnings may be issued throughout the weekend.
