Mild and Windy Conditions Continue

From Meteorologist Brandon Rector...

We had a mild and windy day across the Big Country with highs in the low 60s to low 70s. Winds were sustained at 25 to 30 mph with gusts as high as 44 mph. The winds should calm down a little tonight but still remain a bit on the breezy side. With mostly clear skies expected, lows should reach the upper 30s to low 40s.

Tomorrow will be very similar to today. Skies should be mostly sunny with highs in the upper 60s to low 70s. Windy conditions will likely continue with winds from the west-northwest at 15 to 25 mph. Unlike today though where most of the area was under a Red Flag Warning or Wind Advisory, only Scurry and Mitchell counties are under a Red Flag Warning at this time for tomorrow afternoon.

Monday looks to be nice with mostly sunny skies and highs in the mid 60s. Winds should be much lighter for the start of the new work and school week.

It looks like the pattern for this upcoming week will be different from this past one. We probably won't have as much moisture working into the area. The subtropical jet which helped with bringing moisture into the area likely won't be around for us this week. So, unfortunately, above average temperatures and dry conditions are expected for now.

Have a super Saturday evening and Sunday!
