SAN ANTONIO – Our last opportunity at rain ended with most of us seeing less than a tenth of an inch.

- After morning fog, expect a mostly cloudy Tuesday and an outside chance for a shower or two east of I-35
- Storms are forecast to develop along a boundary late Tuesday night into early Wednesday morning across the Edwards Plateau and Hill County. As they develop, these storms will have the potential to become strong to severe. Part of the Hill Country and San Antonio lie in a slight risk for severe weather. On a scale of one to five, one being the lowest, the yellow area represents a two.
