<p>For the rest of the weekend, heavy rain and storms will move across Texas. Isolated severe storms are in the forecast into early Monday morning. The big story from this setup will be all the heavy rain for Texas, and this includes cities like Dallas and Houston!</p><h1>SEVERE THREAT</h1><p>Sunday, a Marginal risk is in effect for parts of South Texas from the Rio Grande up to Interstate-10. The primary threat will likely be damaging winds, but a few isolated tornadoes can't be ruled out.</p><p><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2026/11/Screenshot 2026-11-15 074045-1794753662077.png"></p><p>There's so much wind energy that Wind Advisories were issued along the Texas Coast for elevated breezes reaching 40 mph. All of that energy could organize a few storms, capable of producing a tornado or two this afternoon. </p><p></p><video src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2026/11/2026-11-15 07-44-56-1794753926824.mp4" controls="true" width="100%"></video><p>The broader concern will be the rainfall amounts. Efficient storms could produce an inch or two of rain, but if a storm were to lock onto one part of the coast, those totals could rapidly increase.

<p>Millions of Americans are getting a chilly reminder that winter is right around the corner as a surge of cold air spreads across the central and eastern United States this weekend.<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0)">&nbsp;</span></p><p>After weeks of unusually mild fall weather, temperatures are taking a sharp turn; some cities saw their first freeze of the season Saturday morning.<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0)">&nbsp;</span></p><h1>Saturday Observed Low Temperatures</h1><p><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2026/11/Screenshot 2026-11-14 082450-1794669901832.png"></p><p>The dramatic cooldown is being driven by a southward dip in the jet stream, allowing colder Canadian air to spill into the Plains, Midwest and Southeast. Temperatures in some areas could fall 10 to 15 degrees below seasonal averages.<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0)">&nbsp;</span></p><p><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2026/11/Screenshot 2026-11-14 082611-1794669984519.png"></p><p>The Midwest will experience some of the coldest conditions, with overnight temperatures dropping into the 20s across portions of Nebraska, Iowa, Missouri and surrounding states. Cities including Omaha and Kansas City could see their first significant freeze following an extended stretch of warmer-than-normal weather.<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0)">&nbsp;</span></p><p>Farther east, the cold air will reach communities around the Great Lakes, including Chicago and Detroit, where residents can expect a noticeable change from the mild temperatures experienced earlier this month.<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0)">&nbsp;</span></p><p>The Southeast won’t escape the chill. Temperatures across Tennessee, Alabama, Georgia and the Carolinas will tumble into the 30s and 40s, with some locations facing the possibility of frost or freezing conditions.<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0)">&nbsp;</span>Even the Sunshine State will get a taste of colder weather. Morning temperatures across Central Florida, including Orlando and Tampa, could dip into the 40s, while parts of North Florida may experience readings in the upper 30s. South Florida will remain warmer, although overnight lows could fall into the 50s.<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0)">&nbsp;</span></p><p><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2026/11/Screenshot 2026-11-15 071646-1794752227011.png"></p><p>These cooler temperatures will linger around many of these same areas for a few days. A stubborn area of high pressure will struggle to move much over the next few days. By Tuesday morning, many of us who aren't used to a crisp morning might be by then. </p><p>The arrival of freezing temperatures is particularly notable after an unusually warm autumn delayed the seasonal cooldown across portions of the country.<span style="color: rgb(0, 0, 0)">&nbsp;</span></p>

Freezing Temperatures Greet Millions This Morning

<p>There are only a few weeks left in the Hurricane Season and it looks like it will be quiet end to the season. There is no tropical activity in either the Atlantic or the Eastern Pacific basins. </p><h1><strong>ATLANTIC BASIN</strong></h1><p>Not much is happening in the Atlantic Basin and that will continue for at least the next 7 days.<img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2026/11/PIC 4-1794617871577.png"></p><h1>Eastern Pacific Basin</h1><p><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2026/11/PIC 5-1794618538087.png">Although tropical activity typically decreases as fall progresses, the Atlantic hurricane season officially continues through November 30. The Eastern Pacific hurricane season also runs through November 30. For now, neither disturbance has developed into a tropical cyclone, but the Pacific system has the greater potential for organization this week.</p><p>WeatherNation will continue monitoring both areas of interest and provide updates as new information becomes available from the National Hurricane Center.</p>

<p>Heavy snow is piling up across portions of the Northeast, especially in New York State where over a foot of snow has accumulated! Snow will continue through Friday morning before tapering off. Lake effect snow will continue around the Great Lakes while the southern Appalachians see a northwest flow snow event into Saturday morning.</p><p><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2026/11/Screenshot 2026-11-13 063936-1794577352746.png"></p><h2>Forecast Timing</h2><p>Snow will taper off through Friday morning in the Poconos, possibly lingering into the early afternoon. As cold NW flow kicks in, lake effect snow and upslope snow (Appalachians) will kick in, lasting into the weekend for some.</p><video src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2026/11/FORECAST2-1794602135827.mp4" controls="true" width="100%"></video><h2>Snow Totals</h2><p>Additional snow totals could top 3-4 inches in a few areas thanks to lake effect that continues through Saturday, but overall an inch or two will fall still.

<p>We've got a party getting started in the midweek with a strong low building in and heading east. It'll bring some heavy rain and maybe even snow to the Northeast; more on that <a target="_blank" rel="noopener noreferrer nofollow" href="https://www.weathernationtv.com/news/east-coast-snow-what-we-know-about-the-late-week-system">here</a>.

They're warm enough, but the setup itself isn't going to lend itself much to a widespread lake effect event. It'll likely stay more isolated.</p><p><img src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2026/11/Screenshot 2026-11-10 045743-1794312721662.png"></p><p>Stay tuned to the forecast here on WeatherNation.

Taban Sharifi grew up in Southern California between Los Angeles and San Diego. She is a Certified Broadcast Meteorologist (CBM) with the American Meteorological Society (AMS). She has a B.S. in Atmospheric, Oceanic, and Environmental Sciences with a minor in Environmental Systems and Society from the University of California, Los Angeles (UCLA). Go Bruins! While in school, Taban was a meteorology intern with NBC LA. There she helped forecast daily weather for the greater Los Angeles region and created a playbook to deploy weather sensors for NBC owned-and-operated stations across the country. Her first on-air job took her to San Angelo, Texas, where she was a morning meteorologist and co-anchor. Working in West Texas gave her knowledge and experience covering severe storms. From there, she moved to Palm Springs, California. People think forecasting in California is sunshine all the time, but with temperatures in the 120’s, wildfires, damaging winds, floodings, and earthquakes, the forecasting kept her very busy! She also worked there as a general assignment reporter and told community stories. Taban is excited for the challenge and opportunity to forecast nationally with WeatherNation. She also looks forward to exploring all that Colorado has to offer!

Texas Flood Threat To Start The Week

Screenshot20261109114648png-1794250017123.png

A series of upper-level disturbances will bring the chance for severe storms today over areas of the Central Plains to the Upper Mississippi Valley.  Some areas under the risk of severe storms today are some of the same areas that deal with severe storms and heavy rain just yesterday.  Here is the very latest.
<h1>Severe Outlook</h1>
<img class="alignnone wp-image-109563 size-full" src="https://media.weathernationtv.com/app/uploads/2019/07/7day.jpg" alt="" width="1920" height="1080" />

From the Rockies the the Great Lakes, the risk of severe storms in the forecast today.  So cities like North Platte, Sioux Falls and Minneapolis will need to keep a close eye on the forecast.
<h1>Severe Risks</h1>

The timing for today's severe storms will be during the afternoon and evening hours.  Strong upper-level winds will help to keep these storms going through the evening even after the sun goes down.  Keep checking with WeatherNation for the latest updates.
