With thunderstorms expected to move through the Interstate 35 corridor during rush hour, the National Weather Service says there’s an increased risk for damaging hail.
NWS has San Marcos and eastern Hays County under a moderate risk for severe storms Monday afternoon — a 4 out of 5 level threat. According to NWS’ severe thunderstorm outlook categories, moderate risk includes the threat of many severe storms that will produce “very large hail, damaging winds, and/or tornadoes.”
“After a round of morning showers and perhaps isolated storms, strong to severe storms are expected mid to late afternoon through this evening into the overnight,” NWS Austin/San Antonio office said. “The storms may form a line and move from west to east. All severe types are possible. While large hail is the primary risk, damaging winds and tornadoes may occur as well.”
