Keep Your Umbrellas Handy

From Chief Meteorologist Brandon Rector...

Temperatures continued to be on the upswing today with highs in the low to mid 90s. That is closer to what we should be averaging for this time of year. Showers and thunderstorms moved into portions of the area this afternoon. There is a chance for more tonight and tomorrow.

We continue to remain in our north-northeast flow aloft. We already have a disturbance moving southward through the Central Plains. It should be close to or possibly in the region overnight and early tomorrow. Showers and thunderstorms have also developed along a weak stationary front that is to our east. Some of that activity could get into our area as well. Overall, we have a 40% chance for rain tonight through tomorrow. Lows should be in the upper 60s to low 70s with highs in the mid to upper 80s.

The upper level pattern looks to remain similar throughout the week. Combine this with the moisture that is expected to remain in place and rain can't be ruled out for anyone in the area. There will be a slight chance for rain Wednesday through Sunday. A few of the days may see an increase in chances due to the possibility of an upper level low developing over southwest Texas late in the work week. It is a scenario we will be keeping an eye on over the next couple of days. Highs should be in the low 90s.

Have a terrific Tuesday!
