Nice Weekend Weather - Then ...

From KRBC Chief Meteorologist Randy Turner ...

You should find the weather to your liking this weekend in the Abilene area. Saturday's high near 55. Sunday near 64. Plenty of sunshine this weekend and dry weather.

The wind should pick up on Monday and Tuesday, gusty at times and from the southwest. That means the wildfire danger will increase on those days as highs climb even more, into the mid to upper 60's.

Changes begin on Wednesday as cooler air returns, followed by what looks like a shot of cold Canadian air, just in time for Christmas Eve and Christmas Day as highs struggle into the 40's.

Moisture with the cold air is a big question mark at this time, but doubtful. Watch this blog as we update conditions leading up to Christmas.
