Cold Front Arrives Tonight

From KRBC Chief Meteorologist Randy Turner ...

A shift in the wind means temperatures about 20 degrees cooler on Thursday, compared to today. A cold front had made its way into the Lubbock area by late afternoon and will push through Abilene in the early nighttime. You can expect the temperature to be around 50 when you wake up Thursday morning.

Rain is still a big question mark and isn't likely, although a few hit and miss showers are possible, just not likely. This is the case for Thursday and Friday. Don't get your hopes up, it won't be much.

I'll leave a few showers in the forecast for Saturday with a slightly better chance starting Sunday and continuing into Monday and Tuesday. Monday and Tuesday are actually the days when we'll see the best chance for rain.

Temperatures Thursday should range from 60 to 70 around the area with a northeast wind 10 to 20 and cloudy skies.

Friday through Monday will feature lots of clouds, highs in the low 70's, lows in the mid 50's and a daily slight chance for hit and miss showers. Again, not much in the way of rain.
