Summer Already Here

From KRBC Chief Meteorologist Randy Turner ...

Sometimes the calendar and the weather pattern don't jive. Such is the case now as temperatures a good 5 to 10 degrees above normal are in place through the next week, well in advance of the official arrival of summer on Sunday, June 21, at 12:45am.

High pressure situated over Louisiana is extended its influence over us, keep storms to the west from coming this way, and keeping cold front to the north, leaving us high and dry, and hot.

Winds will kick up from the south each afternoon and remain breezy at night over the next few days. Temperatures will be in the upper 90's during the day, low to mid 70's at night, over the next seven days.

There is little chance for rain, except for some isolated storms across the western Big Country Tuesday evening.
