the storms are looking like. still very tall in a few spots over fredericksburg. over 60,000 feet. we are also looking for hail, one thing we're not seeing at the moment, but certainly torrential rain. i wouldn't be surprised if some of these were in the 2 to 3- inch category with blinding rain. as the storms pulse up and down and move back toward the east, we have the threat that they could produce those winds because they go up, they go down, and when that mass, even the rain just falling, that can push out those winds and we have seen some winds with these storms over 40 miles per hour, but thankfully no warnings around. >>> the watch goes until 9:00 but it's been trimmed back. the threats, damaging winds, heavy rain which results in flash flooding and a weekend, getting through the evening. pretty nice, your outdoor plans are safe. 70s to start. we drop below 80 downtown. 84 at 11:00. 87 at 1:00. sunday we're in great shape. hot but not humid. 90 and more storms on monday. that could be the next yellow weather alert day. these storms, notice we have the icon right in the middle,
