Good Morning from KRBC Meteorologist Chris Whited...
* A cold moved across the area overnight and it's very cold out there this morning with lows averaging between 20-28 in the area. Northeast winds are making it feel much cooler than the actual air temperatures. Plenty of sunshine today but it will be breezy and chilly with highs only climbing into the middle 30s. Clear and cold tonight with lows in the upper teens and lower 20s.
* Mostly sunny and a bit warmer for Thursday with highs in the upper 40s and cold tomorrow night with lows near freezing. A gradual warming trend starts as we head into the weekend with temperatures back into the 50s and 60s during the daytime and overnight lows above freezing in the upper 30s and 40s. Another cooling trend will come early next week as colder air returns by Tuesday.
* Share Your Christmas Food Drive: Don't forget the annual KRBC Share Your Christmas Food Drive is today from 7:00 A.M - 7:00 P.M right here at the KRBC Studio located at 4510 South 14th. Stop by and drop off your food items (and money donations as well) as we collect for those in need this holiday season. All your food donations will go to the Food Bank of West Central Texas.
* 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.
