OVERNIGHT

Storms continues to keep pushing eastward across the South tonight. The biggest threat will be wind and hail especially in Texas. Along with the severe threat will be flash flooding. As the sun has already set, it is very difficult to judge if you can drive through flood waters. Please REMEMBER TURN AROUND AND DON'T DROWN. The atmosphere has lots of moisture to be squeezed out in showers and storms.

Sunday could also see a few strong storms from North Carolina to the Gulf Coast.
