More Pleasant Fall Weather:

Good Morning from KRBC Meteorologist Chris Whited...

* Special thanks to my collegue Stephanie Malone for working in my place the last few days while I spent a few days back in North Alabama enjoying the fall leaves and very cold mornings in the 20s!

* Big Country Weather Story: Calm and quiet weather continues with a rather mild morning with lows generally into the 50s across the area, much warmer that the 30s for lows earlier in the week! Look for a nice day today with highs approaching 80 with a south wind about 10-15. Tonight will be another mild night with lows in the middle 50s with mostly clear conditions.

* Extended Periods: Weather looks quiet as the long range forecast model (in this case the GFS) keeps the high pressure ridge sitting to the west the rest of the week and into the weekend with temperatures nice and pleasant. I am going for highs in the middle to upper 70s in my forecast package with lows in the middle 50s. The pattern for the next 7 days will remain dry. A very weak front will wash out to our north over the early part of the weekend with perhaps a stronger front working in here toward the middle of next week.

* Halloween: Weather looks nice with temperatures in the lower 70s around sundown and a partly cloudy sky...and maybe a few ghosts too!???!

* Time Change: Don't forecast to "Fall Back" Saturday Night/Sunday Morning as Daylight Saving Time will end at 2:00 AM CDT on Sunday morning... so when it's 2:00 AM, it's actually going to be 1:00 AM CST. Enjoy the extra hour of sleep Sunday morning...just don't be late for church!
