Tuesday Night Update

From Chief Meteorologist Brandon Rector...

We had mostly cloudy skies across much of the Big Country today. There was some light rain mainly along and south of the Interstate 20 corridor. Some sleet pellets and snowflakes mixed in with the rain during the morning and evening hours. Highs for the day only manged to reach the upper 30s to mid 40s.

An upper level low continues to sit in northern Mexico south of Arizona and New Mexico. With moisture continuing to stream in across the eastern and southern portions of the state in the mid and upper levels, showers can't be ruled in the region through at least Friday. That is when the upper level low is expected to move across the Texas panhandle. It is not out of the question to see some sleet and snow mix in with the rain during the evening and early morning hours. No accumulation is expected with the sleet and snow. Since the rain will likely be in the form of showers or sprinkles, totals should be light. Highs Wednesday through Friday look to be in the upper 40s to low 50s.

Saturday should be the best of the next seven with partly cloudy skies and seasonable temperatures. A cold front is expected to move through the area late Saturday night into early Sunday. This means below average temperatuers look to return for the second half of the weekend and early next week.

Have a wonderful Wednesday!
