Tuesday: Still breezy and warm, but with higher potential for showers and thunderstorms. As it looks now, there could be a line of strong to severe thunderstorms moving through Tuesday evening. The Storm Prediction Center says hail, strong winds and tornadoes are all possible threats in Southeast Texas.

Wednesday: Still breezy, still warm. Another round of showers and thunderstorms is possible, but compared to Tuesday, the setup is not as ideal for strong thunderstorms.
