First Alert Weather Day: Easter Sunday Storms in East Texas

Easter Sunday Weather Watch: Prepare for Rain and Potential Storms

Residents of East Texas, take note—a First Alert Weather Day is still in place for Easter Sunday. An upper-level atmospheric system is advancing into the central United States, but it’s starting to lose momentum and energy.

Early on Easter Sunday, expect showers and light rain as a cold front approaches. This front is forecasted to move into East Texas by Sunday afternoon, bringing possible thunderstorms along its path throughout the afternoon and evening. The wet weather might persist late into Sunday night and could extend into Monday morning, with the front finally clearing out by Monday afternoon.

Though widespread severe weather isn’t anticipated in East Texas, any emerging storms carry the potential to become intense. The primary concerns are strong, damaging winds and small hail. It’s crucial to stay vigilant, consider alternate indoor plans, and prioritize safety. Keep an eye on KLTV and KTRE for the latest updates on TV, online, and through all our digital channels.
