A Few Degrees Cooler, Yet Still Hot...Rain Chances Ahead:

Good Morning from Meteorologist Chris Whited at KRBC...

* A weak cold front will drop southward through the Big Country this morning and about all we'll see from it is just a wind shift and about a two to three degrees cooler than yesterday. Abilene officially hit 98 yesterday with 100 reached in Brownwood, Sweetwater and Snyder. I expect highs today about 96-98 in most spots although it could be a tad warmer across the Heartland and Northern Concho Valley as the front slowly drifts southward. Lows tonight will still be above average into the middle and upper 60s. Highs on Wednesday will hold into the middle 90s.

* Rain chances will return to the forecast as get toward the end of the week as a storm system takes shape over the western U.S. and will slowly track toward our direction. The SPC in its Day 4-8 outlook is suggesting we could see some severe weather on Day 4 (Saturday) but we will have to wait and see over the next couple of days how the storm dynamics take shape.
