Carry Your Coat Friday !!

From KRBC Chief Meteorologist Randy Turner ...

There will be a drastic change in weather on Friday. Just when temperatures start to get warm around late morning or noon, BAM (as Emeril would say) - here comes the cold air! The cold air will be arriving across far northern counties of the Big Country by mid to late morning, come Frontiering into Abilene around noon, then proceed into the Coleman/Brownwood areas by mid-afternoon.

FOOTBALL FORECAST: Estimated kickoff temperature Friday night is 56.
