Thursday Night Update

From Chief Meteorologist Brandon Rector...

The warm above average temperatures continued for us today with highs mainly in the mid to upper 70s. Sweetwater and Snyder were a little cooler as both got up to 72.

We could see a few isolated showers and thunderstorms tonight through tomorrow morning due to an upper level disturbance. We are still a bit too dry at the surface to see any significant rain. It is likely that we will have nothing more than a few sprinkles. Mostly cloudy skies tonight should give way to partly cloudy skies tomorrow. Highs on Friday look to be in the mid 70s.

With a cold front not expected to arrive until Sunday morning now, Saturday is expected to be dry with partly cloudy skies and highs in the upper 70s. It is possible for a few locations to reach 80.

The cold front that should arrive on Sunday will bring us a 30% chance for showers and thunderstorms. Highs are expected to reach the upper 60s to low 70s under mostly cloudy skies.

We have a 20% chance for rain Sunday night and Monday, but that could increase. An upper level low is expected to develop close to our area and possibly move through it. All of the computer models have been inconsistent lately with the position of the low. It is something we are keeping an eye on and will keep you updated about. Highs on Monday look to be in the low 70s.

Tuesday through next Thursday look dry for now with highs in the mid to upper 70s.

Have a fantastic Friday!
