Monday Night Update

From Chief Meteorologist Brandon Rector...

We had another day with above average temperatures as highs reached 97 to 101 across the Big Country. There was a little more moisture in the air so it was not quite as comfortable as yesterday.

The upper level high pressure ridge will continue to be in control of our region through the middle of the week. This should keep our high temperatures in the upper 90s to a little over 100. More moisture should continue to build into the area so a stray shower or thunderstorm can't be completely ruled out. Breezy conditions are expected for the next couple of days. This means the fire danger will remain elevated so be very careful.

It looks like a weak cold front will try to get close to the Big Country on Thursday and Friday. With this possiblity, there is a 20% chance of rain on these days. We may also see highs drop down into the mid 90s which is what we expect to see this time of year.

The high pressure ridge should build back into the region this weekend bringing our highs back into the upper 90s.

Have a terrific Tuesday!
