The Warm Weather Continues...

From KRBC Meteorologist Stephanie Malone...



Happy Saturday evening to everyone! We have had pleasant weather this weekend to kick of the fair, and that is going to continue the rest of your weekend. There will be a low of 67 tonight with mostly clear skies and a high of 93 tomorrow with clear skies. Monday will have partly cloudy skies and a high of 92. But then on Monday night into Tuesday morning there is a chance for a cold front to pass through the Big Country and give us 30% chance for rain Tuesday and Wednesday. Highs will fall into the mid to upper 80's with this front. There will then be a chance for a second cold front to pass through the area Thursday night into Friday morning. We will then have highs in the upper 80's to low 90's and a 20% chance for storms with this front. Then, partly cloudy skies and upper 80's for the beginning or the weekend next week.



In the Atlantic, the weather is not as pleasant... Tropical Storm Hanna made landfall today near the border of North Carolina and South Carolina. It's quickly making it's way up the east coast dumping up to 6 inches of rain and bringing 50 mile per hour wind speeds.



An even stronger storm is brewing in the Atlantic, Hurricane Ike. Hurricane Ike is a category 4 hurricane making it's way towards Cuba. It then is projected to make it's way into the Gulf. Once in the gulf the storm could track anywhere. Ike is expected to be a very dangerous hurricane, and all states along the Gulf of Mexico should be keeping a close eye on Ike in the coming week.



From Meteorologist Stephanie Malone, everyone have a great Sunday!
