Wonderful Weekend Weather

From Meteorologist Brandon Rector...

After some fog across portions of the area this morning, it looks like partly cloudy skies should rule the day with highs in the upper 70s to low 80s. The weather looks nice for football or any other plans you may have this evening. Overnight lows will be in the mid to upper 50s again tonight with maybe some patchy fog by Saturday morning.

The upper level low responsible for the rain in the western portions of the area yesterday has retrograded back to the west. We will likely remain dry through the weekend, but the low is expected to move just to our northwest on Saturday. Since the low may be close enough to spark a few showers and thunderstorms in the Big Country, I have put in a slight chance of rain from Saturday afternoon through early Sunday morning. Highs this weekend should be in the low 80s with partly cloudy skies. Homecoming activities for the Abilene universities should be fine, just keep an eye on the sky. Taking a look at Monday and Tuesday, we should be warm and dry with highs in the low to mid 80s.

Have a fantastic Friday!
