Friday Night Update

From Chief Meteorologist Brandon Rector...

It started off as a nice day across the Big Country this morning, but by the afternoon we had severe thunderstorms developing and moving through the area. We had reports of penny to golf ball size hail in some locations. There was a report of a brief tornado touchdown 3 miles north-northeast of Rule in Haskell County. It didn't cause any damage.

A cold front moved through the region this evening. We will be much cooler tomorrow with highs in the mid to upper 50s. Windy conditions should remain with winds from the northwest at 15 to 25 mph.

We will start Sunday off chilly with temperatures in the mid to upper 30s. It isn't out of the question for a few isolated areas to see some patchy frost. You may want to think about bringing in your sensitive plants. We will warm up nicely by the afternoon with highs in the upper 60s.

Monday should be dry with highs in the low 70s under partly cloudy skies.

Our next chance for rain looks to be late Monday night and into Tuesday as a cold front and upper level low move through the area. Right now our chance for showers and thunderstorms is 30%. Highs for Tuesday should be in the low 70s.

The second half of the next work week is expected to be dry with highs in the 70s.

Have a super Saturday!
