Warmer Temperatures Are On The Way

From Chief Meteorologist Brandon Rector...

We had a cloudy, cool, and wet day across much of the Big Country. There was fog and mist during the morning and early afternoon hours. Some of our eastern and southeastern counties saw rain today. Highs were in the low to mid 50s.

More showers and some thunderstorms are expected to move through the region overnight due to an upper level low. Any thunderstorms we see will be capable of producing brief heavy rain, wind gusts of 30 to 40 mph, frequent lightning and possibly pea size hail. The chance for rain is 50%. Lows tonight look to be in the upper 40s to low 50s under mostly cloudy skies.

We have had below average temperatures since last Wednesday, but we should see above average temperatures return tomorrow. After some early morning clouds, there will likely be plenty of sunshine in the afternoon due to the upper level low moving away from the Big Country. Highs are expected to be in the upper 70s to low 80s.

Warm temperatures are likely to continue Wednesday and Thursday with highs in the upper 70s to low 80s under partly cloudy skies.

A cold front is expected to move through the area on Friday. There is a slight chance for rain Thursday night and Friday. Highs should be in the upper 70s to end the work week.

Cooler temperatures look to be with us this weekend thanks to the front. Highs will likely be in the upper 60s to mid 70s under mostly sunny skies.

Have a terrific Tuesday!
