From meteorologist Jason Myers......


Cloudy skies have stayed with us today keeping today's high temperatures a few degrees cooler. Today's highs have still gotten up to around 60 degrees for many locations. All the cloud cover is due to a subtropical jet stream that is bringing the high clouds over Texas. High pressure is helping to bring a southerly flow which is helping to keep the temperatures mild. The biggest question is whether or not the southerly flow can bring enough moisture up into West Central Texas. A cold front will move through early Wednesday which will bring a slight chance of rain with it for late Tuesday night into early Wednesday. As the cold front moves through expect to see a return to sunny skies Wednesday afternoon. Any rain that does fall looks to be minimal; or a few hundreths of an inch if any. It's really going to depend how moist the atmosphere will be when the cold front arrives. Right now, don't expect to see much in rainfall amounts due to the continued dry air in place over West Texas. Temperatures should stay close to seasonable for Wednesday through Friday, with highs in the mid-50s. For now enjoy the mild tempearatures for Monday and Tuesday with high in the lower 60s.

Have a great week!
