Lubbock, Texas – Breezy winds and isolated severe thunderstorms may disrupt Sunday plans across the South Plains and Rolling Plains, including the Lubbock area, as the region enters a volatile spring weather pattern.
According to the National Weather Service in Lubbock, there’s a 10% chance an isolated storm could form across the southeast Rolling Plains Sunday afternoon into evening. If storms develop, they may bring brief but intense wind gusts and hail before moving east of the area. Residents near U.S. Highway 62 and U.S. 84 should monitor conditions closely and avoid unnecessary travel during active weather.
Beyond the storm risk, elevated fire weather conditions are expected Sunday and Monday afternoons, especially in southwestern counties like Terry and Yoakum. Gusty southwest winds reaching 25 mph and low humidity will raise fire danger—residents should avoid burning and secure outdoor materials.
Sunday will be breezy and warm, with highs near 93°F in Lubbock and surrounding cities. Winds will strengthen through the afternoon. Monday continues the breezy trend, with a high near 86°F and southwest gusts persisting into the evening.
Five-Day Forecast for Lubbock:
- Sunday: Sunny, high 93°F, breezy southwest winds 20–25 mph
- Monday: High 86°F, mostly sunny, fire danger remains
- Tuesday: Clear and mild, high near 82°F
