As per reports, on Sunday (23 March) evening, a cold front moving through Central Texas triggered severe storms, leading to a Severe Thunderstorm Watch for much of the Austin area until 0100 hours (local time) on Monday (24 March). The primary concerns included strong winds and large hail, with the National Weather Service (NWS) assessing a slight risk (2 out of 5) for Austin and a marginal risk (1 out of 5) for much of the Hill Country.

• The system is expected to clear at 0200 hours (local time). Hail reports included egg-sized hail near Kerrville and golf-ball-sized hail in Ingram and Medina.
• The main hazards associated with the storms are large hail and strong winds. Hail of one inch or larger posed a risk to vehicles, roofs, and crops, while winds exceeding 60 mph could lead to downed trees, power outages, and flying debris. Similar storms in 2024 caused significant infrastructure damage in the Dallas-Fort Worth area.
• In the aftermath, Central Texas is likely to experience a temporary break from severe weather, with clear skies and temperatures reaching 86 degrees Fahrenheit on Monday (24 March) and 90 degrees Fahrenheit on Tuesday (25 March). However, rainfall is anticipated between Wednesday (26 March) and Saturday (29 March), with potential accumulations of one to two inches.
