Turning Down The Rain Chances & Turning Up The Heat:



Good Morning from Meteorologist Chris Whited...

* No thunderstorms in the Big Country this morning. The overnight complex developed a litle further south and is moving through Southeast New Mexico and the Permian Basin and West Texas this morning. These storms are moving southeast away from the Big Country and down toward the Concho Valley and Edwards Plateau.

* Mostly cloudy this morning then becoming partly cloudy today with highs in the lower 90s. It will be quite humid and expect one to two thunderstorms to pop up in the area later today. Models develop a complex of storms to the north and west again tonight so will mention rain in the forecast for tonight with lows in the middle
70s.

* Weekend: Partly cloudy and humid with isolated thunderstorms possible for Saturday and early on Sunday. Highs will climb into the middle 90s and lows in the middle to lower 70s.

* Next Week: Ridge builds eastward which brings an end to the rain chances for the Big County and reminds us this is still summer in West Central Texas. Highs in the upper 90s and low 100s with overnight lows in the lower to middle 70s.

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