Cooler And Wetter Conditions On Tap For Us

From Chief Meteorologist Brandon Rector...

It was a warm afternoon for us today with highs mainly in the low to mid 80s. Brownwood was able to warm up to 88. Unlike this weekend, there wasn't much in the way of showers or thunderstorms. There was a brief thunderstorm in Throckmorton county, but that was it.

Our chance for rain increases tomorrow to 30% as a cold front is expected to arrive by the late afternoon and evening hours. Highs will still manage to reach the low to mid 80s before the front arrives.

Wednesday will be much cooler with highs in the low 70s. Skies should be mostly cloudy and there is a 40% chance for showers and thunderstorms. Severe weather over the next couple of days looks to be limited. It is not out of the question for a storm to reach severe limits, but it is likely we will just see brief heavy rainfall, frequent lightning, pea-size hail and wind gusts of 40 to 50 mph in the thunderstorms we see.

On Thursday, we could see some lingering showers and thunderstorms. Our chance for rain is 30%. Highs will likely be in the low 70s.

Some upper level disturbances could move through the area Friday through next Monday. The look to impact mainly the western portions of the viewing area. The chance for showers and storms is 20%. Highs will range from the mid 70s on Friday to the mid 80s next Monday.

Have a terrific Tuesday!
