WOW what a line of storms that was! The wind would gust but not too bad....it is now calm here and just overcast skies...can we expect anything else or are we done for the day?!?!

Atmosphere pretty worked over, temperatures have fallen into the 70's. However we still have the upper low spinning away west of Laredo. If not today, maybe tomorrow for another round.

Another short wave is expected to impact areas along the Rio Grande Valley later today. SPC thoughts:

...SRN AND MIDDLE TX GULF COASTAL PLAINS...
A THUNDERSTORM BAND IS CURRENTLY MOVING NWD WEST OF HOU AND OTHERS
MAY EVOLVE DURING THE FORECAST PERIOD AS UPPER LOW REMAINS
QUASI-STATIONARY IN FAR SRN TX. COMBINATION OF PW VALUES AROUND 2
INCHES AND...AT TIMES...THE ORGANIZED OUTFLOW...MAY RESULT IN A FEW
STRONG WIND GUSTS. ALSO...ENHANCED/SLIGHTLY BACKED LOW LEVEL WINDS
COULD SUPPORT AN ISOLATED BRIEF TORNADO IN MORE DISCRETE STORMS.

Thank you wxdata, I was only asking because I need to get my grandmother out of the house this afternoon and not trying to sound rude but she is 87 years old and is a high risk for falling...I just did not want to get her out if it we were going to have another round of storms.
