Thursday Night Update

From Chief Meteorologist Brandon Rector...

It was another beautiful day across the Big Country. Skies were mostly sunny. High temperatures were in the low to mid 70s with light winds.

An upper level trough will move close to or slightly over the area tomorrow. With some moisture expected to return by the time it arrives, we have a 20% chance of showers and thunderstorms. The north and northeasten portions of the viewing area have the best chance at seeing rain, but anyone could see at least an isolated shower or storm. It is not out of the question for a storm to reach severe limits, but there is not a specific risk for our area according to the Storm Predicition Center. Highs look to be in the upper 70s to low 80s.

With an upper level low expected to sit over the Baja California region this weekend, we could see some isolated showers and thunderstorms thanks to some disturbances sent our way. The chance is slight right now. Highs look to remain in the upper 70s to low 80s.

Another upper level low will bring us a 20% chance for showers and thunderstorms Monday and Tuesday. Highs should be in the low 80s under mostly cloudy skies.

Wednesday and next Thursday are expected to be warm and dry with highs in the mid to upper 80s.

Have a fantastic Friday!
