Tuesday Afternoon Update

From Chief Meteorologist Brandon Rector...

Seasonal temperatures continued for much of the Big Country today with highs mainly in the low 90s. Brownwood did manage to make it to 97 this afternoon. A few small isolated showers and weak thunderstorms developed over the eastern portions of the viewing area during the late afternoon hours, but they were all short lived and should end once the sun sets tonight.

A cold front that is currently moving into central plains is expected to arrive in the Big Country by Thursday. It is then expected to stall through at least the first half of the weekend. Our chance for rain will be slight tomorrow, but by Thursday and Friday it is 30%. For Saturday, the chance of rain is 40%. With decent chances for rain in the forecast, it looks like we will need to take the rain gear with us to the football games this weekend. Highs during this time period will be in the mid to upper 80s.

Some upper level disturbances could affect the area Sunday and early next week. The chance for rain on Sunday is 30%, but it drops to 20% for Monday and next Tuesday. Highs look to be in the upper 80s.

Have a wonderful Wednesday!
