A low pressure system associated with a large upper-level trough sweeping across the Nation, will bring strong storms and heavy rain to the Lone Star State by Friday.  Some areas down in Central Texas could see over 5 inches of rainfall when all is said and done.

Severe Outlook

Severe storms will be possible down in areas like San Antonio and Corpus Christi.  Damaging winds will likely be the main weather risk (along with heavy rain), but large hail and tornadoes can't be ruled out at this point.
