Saturday Night Update

From Chief Meteorologist Brandon Rector...

Comfortable conditions remained around the Big Country today with highs in the upper 60s to low 70s. Skies were sunny all day and are expected to remain clear tonight. That is good because the Leonid meteor shower will be peaking. The best time to see it will be tonight from 10:45 p.m. until 12:30 a.m. There may be over 100 meteors per hour during that time. You will not need a telescope or binoculars. Be sure you are in a clear spot away from city lights and look eastward.

Cooler temperatures should be with us tomorrow with highs in the upper 50s to low 60s. Mostly sunny skies are expected.

An upper level high pressure ridge looks to build into the region early next week. This will cause a warming trend for us. Highs are expected to be in the mid 60s on Monday before reaching the mid 70s on Wednesday. Breezy conditions are likely Tuesday through Thursday. Overall, it looks like it will be pleasant for the Thanksgiving holiday.

Have a spectacular Sunday!
