Still Looks Rainy !!

From KRBC Chief Meteorologist Randy Turner ...

I can get used to hearing thunder and smelling the freshness of rain to start my day everyday. It has been nice to see our drought plagued area getting some much needed rain and feeling some temperatures that aren't too bad for this time of July.

I'm keeping rain in your forecast Wednesday and Thursday. Like we've seen in past days, there should be an area of thunderstorms develop in eastern New Mexico or Texas Panhandle Tuesday afternoon and move south into our area overnight, with the western counties of the Big Country more in line to see the best chance for rain.

We also have a cold front draped roughly along I-20 this Tuesday afternoon which can also serve as a focal point for storms.

The front, combined with another uppper level disturbance, should bring our best chance for rain and thunderstorms Wednesday afternoon into Wednesday night across the majority of the Big Country. The rain will continue into Thursday before ending by Thursday night.

Temperatures will stay below normal Wednesday and Thursday, in the upper 80's, but warm back to the 90's Friday and Saturday.

I'm going ahead with a good chance for storms again on Sunday through next Tuesday.
