Good Morning from KRBC Meteorologist Chris Whited...
* Showers continue across the eastern and southeastern areas this morning and should be confined to this area the rest of the morning. I think for the rest of us, we'll be mostly cloudy with clouds gradually breaking up heading into the day. Temperatures cooler today with highs in the upper 50s and lower 60s. A few clouds still around tonight with cool temperatures into the upper 30s.
* Weekend: Forecast looks good for the weekend for the area. Sky conditions will be mostly sunny with highs on Saturday in the upper 60s and Sunday into the lower 70s. Overnight lows will be in the upper 30s on Saturday morning but the upper 40s on Sunday morning.
* Next Week: One front will arrive on late Monday bringing in cooler weather for next week but a stronger front should arrive by the middle of next week. Models have backed off with the front the middle of next week. Highs in the 70s Monday but upper 50s/low 60s next week. Thanksgiving Day looks to be nice, although a bit cool.
* Winter Outlook: The Climate Prediction Center indicates a moderate El Niño pattern is taking shape and will bring West Central Texas a wetter pattern for the winter months. There is also a chance for increased winter precipitation depending on temperature trends. Data suggests equal chances of above or below normal temperatures, so more than likely the numbers will remain near normal for this time of year.
