>> IT SOUNDS SO REAL, DOESN'T IT? >> IT DOES, AND IT'S UNBELIEVABLE HOW FAST YOU WERE ABLE TO DO IT. LET'S CHECK IN WITH BONNIE NOW FOR -- LONNIE NOW FOR A LOOK AT YOUR FIRST ALERT FORECAST. >> THE RAIN IS FINISHED NOW IN OUR AREA. WE'RE GOING TO START TO IMPROVE INTO TOMORROW. THE NEXT WEATHER MAKER IS RIGHT HERE. THIS FRONT IN THE MIDSECTION OF THE COUNTRY PUSHES IN OUR DIRECTION. HOWEVER, A LOW PRESSURE SYSTEM THAT GAVE US SUCH TERRIBLE WEATHER FOR TWO DAYS STRAIGHT WILL ACTUALLY AID US IN DISSOLVING THE LEADING EDGE, SO WE ARE GOING TO PICK UP SOME RAIN ON SATURDAY, JUST NOT TOO MUCH RAIN. HERE IS HOW I WOULD

STACK EVERYTHING UP. AS I SAID, THE RAIN FROM THE SYSTEM IS FINALLY OVER. A LITTLE BRIGHTENING FOR FRIDAY. WE ARE DEFINITELY KEEPING SOME CLOUDS AROUND. IT IS A BETTER DAY, STILL CLOUDS, BUT PARTLY SUNNY. 20% CHANCE OF CLOUDS ON SATURDAY. THE BEST PART OF THE WEEKEND COULD NOW BE THE SECOND HALF OF SUNDAY. LET'S GO BACK TO THIS BIG PICTURE BECAUSE THE BRIGHTEST COLOR YOU SEE HERE, YELLOWS AND REDS AROUND TEXAS AND LOUISIANA, THIS HAS BEEN A BRUISING STORM AS IT RUMBLED THROUGH THE HOUSTON AREA. 1 MILLION REPORTED OUTAGES BECAUSE OF IT. WE HAD BASEBALL

-SIZED HAIL. LOTS OF TORNADO WARNINGS. HOWEVER, THEY BELIEVE ALL THE DAMAGE HAS BEEN MORE STRAIGHT-LINE HURRICANE FORCE WINDS. IT'S NOT HURRICANE, BUT WINDS OVER 70 MILES PER HOUR. TOMORROW IS 73 DEGREES. 69 ON SATURDAY WITH A 20% CHANCE OF RAIN AND CLOUD COVER OUT THERE. A LITTLE BIT BETTER ON SUNDAY AND YOU IMPROVE AS YOU PUSH ALONG GETTING TO MONDAY. 74. TUESDAY IS LOOKING GOOD AT 75. WEDNESDAY LATE INTO THURSDAY WOULD BE THE NEXT CHANCE OF RAIN.
