Nothing New in the Weather World

From KRBC Chief Meteorologist Randy Turner ..

The one big storm system on the U.S. map right now is the tropical low off the Carolina coast, bringing lots of rain to the eastern U.S.

Another big weather system is affecting our area, but it's a weather maker of a different sort. High pressure in the upper levels leads to calm and dry weather in our area through the next 7 to 10 days. I don't foresee any major changes coming this way. A weak cold front will drop into the area toward the middle of next week but isn't expected to create any significant weather.

Great weather and cooperative winds for Abilene's 14th Annual BalloonFest, sponsored by the Optimist Club, at Red Bud Park Friday and Saturday. Come on out!

Thursday through Tuesday: Mainly sunny days, clear nights. Highs upper 80's, lows low 60's.
