North Texas has been experiencing a series of storms, and it looks like there's more to come. The National Weather Service's Fort Worth office has issued a forecast for scattered, potentially severe storms on Sunday and Monday. These storms are expected to hit the metro area in the early evening, similar to the ones seen on Saturday.

Saturday's storms brought hail and strong winds to counties north and west of Dallas-Fort Worth. Jack, Wise, and Cooke counties reported hail ranging from quarter to baseball-sized. Grayson County also experienced tree damage, leaving over 3, 000 customers without power on Sunday morning. Despite these severe conditions, the Dallas-Fort Worth area only received a small amount of rain, about 0. 07 inches.

The weather service has predicted a 30 to 40% chance of storms developing on Sunday. If they do, they could bring hail and scattered showers, especially near and north of Interstate 20 after 5 p. m. Monday is also expected to see more storms before slightly cooler and drier air moves in.

Looking ahead, the forecast for the week includes a mix of cloudy and sunny days with varying chances of showers and thunderstorms. Temperatures are expected to remain warm, with highs ranging from the low 80s to the upper 80s. Winds will also vary in speed and direction throughout the week.

It's important for residents to stay informed and prepared. Keep an eye on the weather updates and be ready for potential power outages and property damage. Remember, even if the storms seem far away, they can quickly change direction and intensity. Stay safe and stay informed.
