Cold coming on strong!

From Morning Meteorologist Kristen Connolly….

It is the tale of two airmasses. Today we will make it into the 70’s, much above average and in only 24 hours things will be extremely colder with dry artic air rolling in . Today partly cloudy skies will persist with moisture available a 20 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms in the afternoon before the front pushes through in the evening hours. Once it does things will be quit cooler and could even see freezing rain and sleet overnight. Temperatures will plummet in the overnight and we will make it to just around 30 degrees. With plenty of wind, wind chills will be in the 20’s. Because of these conditions a Winter Storm Watch is up for much of the Big Country. This means that conditions for travel could be impaired.

Tomorrow afternoon highs will only make it to the mid 30’s. A 30 percent chance of precipitation is possible and with cold temperatures it could be a wintry mix. By the weekend we should begin warm up to upper 40’s for highs with plenty of sunshine but overnight lows should stay just around 30 degrees.

By the beginning of the work week temperatures we will be in the lower 50’s.

Have a great day!
