Amarillo, Texas – Storms are set to make an early-week comeback across the Texas Panhandle, with Amarillo bracing for a round of showers and thunderstorms by Monday night.
According to the National Weather Service in Amarillo, a series of disturbances will move across the region starting late Monday, bringing scattered storms, lightning, and localized flooding potential through at least Thursday. Monday evening’s rain chance sits at 70%, with the strongest storms arriving after dark. Winds could gust up to 20 mph, especially near I-40, increasing travel risks.
Rain chances persist into Tuesday, with another 30% chance of showers and thunderstorms after 4 a.m. and throughout the day. While severe weather is not guaranteed, repeated rainfall may lead to slick roads and poor visibility, especially during commuting hours.
Expect mostly sunny skies by Wednesday, but don’t leave the umbrella behind—spotty storms could return again Wednesday night. Temperatures hover in the mid-80s all week, offering some relief from last week’s highs but keeping humidity in play.
Looking ahead to the 4th of July holiday, early signs suggest a mostly dry Thursday, though a 20% chance of pop-up storms remains. Firework displays and outdoor plans should proceed cautiously, with updated forecasts due Wednesday night.
⚠️ Plan ahead: Delay outdoor travel during peak storm hours, charge devices, and secure loose items outdoors.
