Friday Morning Update

Good Morning from Morning Meteorologist Kristen Connolly…

It was a warm afternoon across the Big Country with lots of sunshine and highs in some areas hitting 90 degrees. Although we had the third wettest summer on record it seems we may be keeping September dry for a few more days.

Today we will see lots of sunshine with temperatures again topping off at 89 degrees. A cold front that is draped over the panhandle will continue to track south however it should stall just to the North of our area. It will bring us some cloud cover overnight but shouldn’t affect our Saturday afternoon temperatures. Through the night we will increase the clouds with the approaching front and decrease the clouds through the morning. There will be the possibility of an isolated shower to our North however this system has been fairly dry.

For the beginning of next week an upper level ridge sets up, keeping us high and dry. Temperatures will top off in the upper 80’s with lows in the mid 60’s. By end of a next week a strong low to the west will track east and this will bring us our next chance of rain. Models have been slowing the system down and not pushing it in our area until near the weekend so we may see our third week in September a dry one.

Have a great day!
