Tuesday Night Update

From Chief Meteorologist Brandon Rector...

We saw more showers and thunderstorms in the area today, but not before most of the Big Country was able to see highs in the upper 90s to a little over 100. The rain was mainly isolated, so not everyone was able to cool down.

More isolated showers and thunderstorms are possible tomorrow because the stationary front, or what is left of it, will still be around and outflow boundaries from today's activity should be roaming the area too. The chance for rain is 20% so not everyone will see rain. Skies look to be partly cloudy with highs in the upper 90s to a little over 100.

The upper level high pressure ridge that has been across much of the state lately should take over for Thursday through Saturday. A stray shower or storm can't be completely ruled out, but the chance is less than slight. Highs should be right around 100.

It still looks like another weak cold front may try to move close to the Big Country by Sunday and hang around early next week. The chance for rain increases to slight to 20% during this time period because of this. Highs may cool down into the mid 90s depending on how far south the front gets and how much cloud cover and rain we get.

Have a wonderful Wednesday!
