Temperatures Getting Hotter:



Good Morning from Meterologist Chris Whited...

* Unlike the last few mornings, the radar over West Central Texas is quiet. Expect a mostly sunny day with highs into the middle 90s with our lows dropping into the lower 70s overnight. The ridge that is to our west has drifted eastward and will dominate the weather pattern for the Big Country until at least Independence Day. Expect highs each afternoon into the upper 90s and lows in the middle 70s with partly cloudy conditions.

* Rain Chances? Models are bringing some slight rain chances back into the picture for late Sunday, Monday and into Tuesday so I've added a 20% chance to my forecast package this morning. A bit cooler on Monday but the otherwise temperaures will only drop into the middle 90s with the ridge easing up somewhat across the area.

* July 4th Holiday: Weather looks great for the holiday but it will be "hot as a firecracker" with afternoon highs near 100° under a partly cloudy sky. Only a light south wind.

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

* Twitter: You can follow us on twitter anytime for quick weather updates by visiting the KRBC Weather Twitter. You can also check out news updates from KRBC via twitter also by visiting the Big Country Homepage Twitter.

Have a great Thursday...
