Warmer Temperatures On Tap For Us

From Chief Meteorologist Brandon Rector...

We started off with cloudy skies and some light snow this morning, but by this afternoon it was mostly sunny. Despite the sun, most of us were only able to make it into the low 30s for highs. Brownwood managed to make it to 36.

It will be another cold night tonight with lows in the upper teens to low 20s. With a hard freeze across the area, be sure you protect your pets, plants, and pipes.

Friday looks to be much warmer with highs in the upper 50s to low 60s. The reason we will see a rise in temperatures is due to winds from the southwest at 15 to 25 mph.

A weak cold front should move through the region late Friday which will cool us down a little bit for the weekend. Highs on Satuday and Sunday look to be in the upper 50s. No precipitaiton is expected since this frontal passage will be a dry one.

Monday, President's Day, looks to be pleasant with partly cloudy skies and highs in the low to mid 60s.

Our highs should remain in the low to mid 60s Tuesday through next Thursday. An upper level low and cold front are expected to affect the region Tuesday into early Wednesday. This will bring us a 20% chance of showers and thunderstorms.

Have a fantastic Friday!
