AM Clouds, PM Sunshine & Cooler:



Good Morning from KRBC Meteorologist Chris Whited...

*** Dense Fog Advisory for the areas along and north of Interstate 20 until 9:00 AM this morning ***

* At the time I am updating the KRBC Weathering The Storm Blog the cold front is sitting along Interstate 20 and slowly moving southward. The front should be near Ballinger, Coleman and Brownwood between 9:00 and 10:00 this morning as it continues to move southward. Post-frontal low clouds are in place and we once again have areas of fog, especially north of the frontal boundary. This fog will burn off by mid-morning across the area. We'll start the day with clouds but plenty of sunshine with a few clouds by the afternoon. Much cooler temperatures today with highs averaging between 68-72° across the Big Country, Heartland and Northern Concho Valley. A mostly clear sky for tonight with some chilly temperatures with lows between 48-52° and a cool north breeze. Not a bad looking Friday with mainly sunny conditions and highs near 70° for most of us.

* Weekend & Next Week: Pleasant weather for the weekend with highs in the upper 60s and lower 70s and lows at night into the upper 40s and lower 50s. No rain expect with mainly sunny conditions. Clouds and warmer weather return next week ahead of the next system that brings some rain chances by the middle of next week.

* Boo at the Zoo: Perfect weather for the annual Boo at the Zoo event here in Abilene on Saturday afternoon and evening. Temperatures should be in the upper 60s and lower 70s during the event. Bring the kids out and have a great time. Be sure to stop by the KRBC booth and get some candy and meet our news team. Remember there is a $2.00 fee to get into the Boo at the Zoo event.
