Friday Forecast

Good Morning from Morning Meteorologist Kristen Connolly…

We saw popcorn thunderstorms yesterday afternoon with the strongest storms staying in our northern counties. Overnight the storms died and we saw very clear skies with temperatures starting off in the upper 60’s.

To kick off our weekend we will see partly sunny skies with the chance for afternoon hit or miss storms. With enough moisture, outflow boundaries from yesterday storms and instability from the heating of the day the best time will in the afternoon and early evening. It will also be a bit breezier with winds gusting to 20 mph. Tonight we should be able to push away the storms just in time for the Friday night football games with lows dipping to the mid 60’s.

High pressure ridge builds in for Saturday and we will dry things back out with warm temperatures in the mid 80’s, perfect weather for the Balloon Festival at Red Bud Park. By Sunday rain chances will return as a cold front looms close to the Big Country. We will also keep them in to kick off our work week. Temperatures stay steadily in the mid 80’s with lows in the upper 60’s.

Have a wonderful weekend!
