Even Warmer & Increased Fire Danger:

Good Morning from KRBC Meteorologist Chris Whited...

Quiet weather continues across our area as a center if high pressure will settle over West Central Texas the next few days. A low pressure area developing to our north will help increase the pressure gradient and thus pick up winds across the area the next few days. Highs will be very warm in the lower 80s today and tomorrow and approaching close to 90 by Friday.

With the warm, dry and windy conditions our fire weather threat will be at critical levels the next few days. Friday looks to be the most serious day for fires in our area. The National Weather Service in San Angelo has already put out a Fire Weather Watch for all of our area on Friday. It is a good possibility it will be elevated to Red Flag Warning status by then as conditions will be met.

A weak front will push into the Big Country on Saturday and will cool our daytime highs closer to the normal with temperatures near 70 (the normal high is about 68). Our next storm will take shape over the later half of the weekend and will bring some rain chances back on Monday and Tuesday. The exact amount of rainfall is still in question as forecasted model data is developing different senarios with this system. Lets just hope for a nice rain as we definately need it here in our area.

Enjoy your Wednesday!
