Reports of massive, quarter-sized hail falling from the sky in Houston on Christmas Eve appeared all over social media on Tuesday afternoon as a severe thunderstorm warning and tornado watch was issued for Harris County.

For the holiday week, multiple rounds of storms are expected to swing through Southeast Texas through Friday, with the first round arriving just in time for Santa’s annual zoom across Houston. Damaging wind and hail are possible with the strongest storm cells in Southeast Texas through Tuesday.

While Fort Worth will not see a white Christmas, we may see a cold, grey one. There is potential for storms with threats of hail and damaging winds on Christmas Eve, according to the Fort Worth National Weather Service forecast.

Southeast Texas continues to struggle with implementing this whole "winter" concept, and the week of Christmas is looking unfortunately balmy and stormy as the height of the holiday season approaches.

When you think about the perfect weather for Christmas Eve, you might envision what we often see in the movies — gentle snow flurries drifting through the cold winter air. Here in Texas, however, it hardly ever turns out that way.
