AUSTIN, Texas - We have a chance for severe weather overnight Saturday into Sunday morning.
A line of storms looks to move into the western portion of our viewing area (around Mason, Junction, and Brady) starting around 3 a.m.
This line of strong storms will move east through the overnight hours into morning.
Storms look to arrive near Austin, San Marcos, Georgetown around 7 a.m.
The system will be east near Bastrop and Giddings around 8 to 9 a.m.
The main threat with these storms is that they could bring tornadoes, very large hail (up to 2-3 inches possible), and strong winds (60-80 mph).
Please stay weather aware tonight and tomorrow and make sure you have a way to receive any warnings in case they do get issued.
Once the afternoon arrives, the line of storms will be past us, but there will still be a possibility for isolated storms and possibly an isolated severe storm.
