A Cold Thursday Morning

Good Morning from Morning Meteorologist Kristen Connolly

We saw a very cool day to mark the half way point in the week. A cold front made its way through in the morning hitting our northern counties by 7 am and making it all the way through by 1pm. It brought with us some windy conditions with gusts over 30 mph. The winds have calmed down and the skies have cleared which has made temperatures plummet to the upper 30's to low 40's. On your way out the door grab the jacket and you may even want to get some gloves because the steering wheel is going to be cold.

Today we will continue to see North/Northeast winds because of a High pressure sitting over the Panhandle. The cooler air will stick around keeping our highs below average around 60. We will see plenty of sunshine with just a few clouds. Overnight will be another chillier one as temperatures drop to around 40.

We will start the weekend on a warming trend as High pressure slides off to the east and switches our winds back out of the South. Temperatures will gradually get back to the low to mid 70's. Overnight lows in the lower 50's.

This weekend the low pressure system that has been spinning off the Baja Peninsula will finally make its move eastward. It has slowed down quit a bit and now looks like it will bring rain on Sunday. The bulk of the activity looks like it will stay in the Hill Country and along the coast but it could push into our Southern and Eastern counties.

Next week we will start off quiet then another front may arrive just in time for Holiday travel. This system is bringing cooler weather once again. For right now Highs will drop to the upper 50's to low 60's, lows in the 30's.

Have a great day!
