Sunday Night Update

From Chief Meteorologist Brandon Rector...

The pleasant weekend continued today as highs reached the mid 90s this afternoon across the Big Country. It was also pretty comfortable as dewpoints stayed mainly in the 50s.

The upper level high pressure ridge that moved westward this weekend will begin sliding back to the east near the Four Corners region. This will cause a slight warming trend for the first half of the work week with highs reaching the upper 90s by Wednesday.

A few upper level disturbances could move into the region late Wednesday through Friday. With more moisture expected to build back in by this time period, there will be at least a slight chance of showers and thunderstorms. A little more cloud cover is likely on Thursday and Friday, so high temperatures should fall back into the mid 90s.

By next weekend, we can expect the ridge to build back stronger into the area so highs should return to the upper 90s.

Have a magnificent Monday!
