Final storms roll through Dallas County on Wednesday. When’s the next chance for rain?

A storm system that’s poured more than 5 inches of rain across parts of North Texas will bring one last day of wet weather Wednesday.

The threat of severe weather in the Dallas-Fort Worth area is low, but heavy rain is possible earlier in the day, forecasts show.

The National Weather Service in Fort Worth issued a flash flood warning from about 1:30 to 3 p.m. for Dallas County and a northeastern portion of Ellis County after thunderstorms produced between 1.5 and 3 inches of rain.

A Wednesday morning forecast from the weather service predicted isolated rain totals throughout North Texas could accumulate to as much as 1-2 inches.

The recent storms should conclude by late afternoon Wednesday, giving way to a few days of drier weather, according to the KXAS-TV (NBC5) forecast.

A brief cold front will move in later Wednesday as the rain exits, the weather service said. Wind gusts may speed up to 40 mph.

The sun is expected to shine all day Thursday through Sunday, gradually warming temperatures back up to above normal. Highs will likely be in the 80s by the weekend.

The weather service is monitoring a storm system that could move through the Dallas-Fort Worth area by the middle of next week.

Severe weather could be possible with a concern of heavy rainfall and flooding, the weather service warned. The forecast will be more exact the closer to the weather event.
