Hot Today, Isolated Storms Tonight:




Good Morning from Meteorologist Chris Whited...

* A warm front to our south across the Concho Valley and Heartland will slowly begin to drift back northward late today and tonight.Clouds will depart and temperatures will warm up for Tuesday and Wednesday with highs in the lower 90s with dry conditions.

* Focus then turns to thunderstorm chances late this afternoon into tonight when a disturbance embedded in westerly flow aloft enters our area from the west. The best chance should be across the western half of our area between 7 pm and 10 pm... As the disturbance and associated convection move east a slight chance for storms will continue across the viewing area. Much of the western half of our area has a slight risk for severe storms, given the moderate instability and sufficient vertical shear which is expected.

* There is another slight chance for rain on Thursday but the best rain chances will be with a new front this weekend that will bring rain late Saturday and early Sunday.

* Join us on television this morning for the lastst on your forecast as well as news from around Abilene and the Big Country on KRBC's Abilene Today at 6:00 AM and on Abilene Midday at 11:30 AM.
