Rain Chances Looking A Little Better

From Meteorologist Brandon Rector....

The baking temperatures continued across the Big Country today as highs once again reached the mid to upper 90s across the area. This type of heat will be coming to an end very soon as the shift in our weather pattern still looks likely.

The upper level high pressure ridge that has been dominating our weather for almost two weeks now should finally break down by Friday. Highs will still remain in the mid 90s through the end of the work week. Moisture looks to increase over the next couple of days so we can expected it to feel a little more humid.

An upper level low pressure trough should set up by this weekend and bring some disturbances with it. Therefore, we have a chance of rain. Right now, that chance is about 20% to 30% with the best chance being late Saturday into Sunday. More disturbances are possible Monday and Tuesday, but rain chances on those days are slight to 20%. With a little more cloud cover around, we can expect slightly cooler temperatures. Highs should cool down into the low 90s, which is what we average this time of year.

Have a terrific Thursday!
