Monday Morning Forecast

Good Morning from Morning Meteorologist Kristen Connolly…

The morning air felt like fall had finally come but by the afternoon summer will still be holding on. Temperatures started off in the 60’s but afternoon highs will reach the upper 80’s.

As the high pressure ridge begins to break down we are seeing subtropical moisture being plumed into west Texas sparking showers and thunderstorms in the Big Bend and Panhandle. In our area we should see a few scattered showers and thunderstorms in our western and northern counties. Everyone should begin to see more mid and upper level cloud cover but limited moisture in the lower levels has kept dew points in the 50’s. This moisture will increase as well and help everyone for rain chances by tomorrow.

A weak front pushing through the plains will arrive in our area tomorrow afternoon and put a rain chances for the area at 30%. This front is fairly weak and will knock temperatures back just a few degrees.

For the rest of the week we will stay in a zonal flow aloft which means west to east. This should keep our weather quiet with temperatures in the mid 80’s and partly cloudy skies.

Have a great day!
