Hot and Dry Conditions Continue

From Meteorologist Brandon Rector...

Sorry for the late update tonight. We had the hottest day of the year so far here in the Big Country today. Many spots reported temperatures above 100. Here in Abilene we made it all the way up to 101. Brownwood, Comanche, and Sweetwater each made it to 102. Snyder was just under the century mark at 99.

A weak cold front, really more of a wind shift line, will make its way through the area late tonight and tomorrow. A wind shift from the southeast to the east-northeast is expected. Because of this our temperatures should be a touch cooler, but still very hot. Highs tomorrow look to reach the mid to upper 90s across the area.

An upper level high pressure ridge will continue to control our weather over the next week with hot and dry conditions expected. Highs will likely remain in the upper 90s for Thursday through early next week. Try to stay cool and protect yourself from the heat.

Have a wonderful Wednesday!
