Thursday Night Update

From Chief Meteorologist Brandon Rector...

It was another warm and breezy day here in the Big Country. Highs were in the upper 60s to mid 70s which is a little warmer than yesterday. There were a few more clouds in the area, but they were mainly high level cirrus.

We can expect the warm and breezy conditions to continue through Sunday. Skies should be mostly sunny to partly cloudy with highs in the mid to upper 70s. There will be an elevated fire danger through the end of the week so please continue to be careful.

A cold front looks to move through the area on Monday. There is a 30% chance of showers and thunderstorms. Highs should be in the mid 60s under mostly cloudy skies.

An upper level low is expected to develop behind the front and move close to or possibly over the area Tuesday, Wednesday, and early Thursday. It looks like we will have at least a 40% chance of rain. Highs should be in the upper 40s to around 50. There is a possiblity, and I stress the word possibility, that we may see some wintry precipitation late Tuesday and into Wednesday. At this time, it looks like it will be an all rain event. We are six days away from this situation so we have plenty of time to see how things develop. As always, we will keep a close eye on this storm system and let you know the latest.

Have a fantastic Friday!
