Slight Chance of Strong Thunderstorms

From Chief Meteorologist Craig Carnesi...

Warm and windy conditions will prevail for the next 48 hours or so across the area. Overnight lows tonight will only manage to dip to the upper 50s to lower 60s.

Tuesday afternoon expect high temperatures to climb back into the middle 80s with winds averaging 15 to 25 miles per hour out of the South.

Wednesday, things could change just a bit across the area as a deep trough in the upper levels of the atmosphere digs our direction. This trough will push a dryline through the Northern Big Country Wednesday afternoon and we could see a few isolated thunderstorms. As this trough pushes East, we could also see a couple of isolated thunderstorms on the back side of the trough.

This trough will then bring some cooler air in behind it, and also pull in drier, more stable air. By Thursday afternoon high temperatures will fall back into the lower 70s.

Friday through Monday mostly sunny skies will rule the area with afternoon highs in the middle to upper 70s.
