Cold Front vs. Forecast:

Good Morning from KRBC Meteorologist Chris Whited...

* The cold front is stalled over the Big Country this morning and is going to be the main factor in forecasting temperatures for the area. At 5:00 AM we have 50s in Abilene and to the west, while Brownwood and Breckenridge on the other side of the stalled front sit near 70. Model data is going for 70s ahead of the front today with 60s behind the front which stretches from about San Angelo to Clyde to Albany this morning. There is still a good chance for rain across the area today and tonight. Abilene picked p nearly two inches with the heavy rain just before midnight.

* Extended Periods: a gradual warming and drying trend will set up by the end of the week across West Central Texas as high pressure builds back in across the area.
