Thunderstorms push through

Good Morning from your Morning Meteorologist Kristen Connolly….

High Temperatures yesterday stayed below average for the first time in a few weeks only reaching high of 78 here in Abilene. This will be the trend for the next few days. Monday night and into Tuesday morning thunderstorms and showers moved through the Big Country, at around 30 mph, though the really strong storms stayed to the South of our viewing area. We did have a few stronger thunderstorms move through Robert Lee, Ballinger and Coleman.

We will continue the chance of precipitation today because of the front right across west central Texas, the most likely chance being in the morning and into the afternoon. Temperatures will stay cooler than average reaching around 70’s for a high and 50’s for lows. Winds will stay around 10 mph switching from the SE to NW.

Tomorrow we should see a decrease in clouds and a beautiful day before our next cold front moves through Wednesday night into Thursday. Temperatures should reach higher 70’s. We could see a chance of rain associated with this front but that will depend on how much moisture we will have available. Bring out the jackets Thursday with Partly Cloudy skies and much cooler temperatures we will just barely make it into the 60’s in some places and could even see some 30’s for lows. Friday we could again see a clearing with Mostly Sunny skies but temperatures should still stay fall like. Our next cold front could push through this weekend brining the next best chance of rain. Temperatures for the weekend should stay around average or a little cooler.

Have a great Tuesday!
