Winter Is Back:



Good Morning from Meteorologist Chris Whited...

* Cold front continues to sag southward this morning and will clear the Big Country in the next few hours. Cold air working into the area will bring us a very chilly and wintry day across the KRBC viewing area with many spots holding into the upper
30s for daytime highs. With the northeast winds, it will feel even chillier. Mostly sunny conditions will eventually lead to partly cloudy conditions by afternoon. A cold night tonight with low 20s and I would not be surprised if a few spots dipped into the upper teens but cloud cover will be the main factor on temperatures tonight as clouds are expected to develop and drift in from the south.

* Friday: Still looking cool with highs in the upper 40s and lower 50s with a few clouds in the area. Winds will turn southwesterly and thus we will be a bit warmer as the cold air mass will be somewhat erroded.

* Weekend: Look for a warming trend over the weekend with highs climbing back into the upper 50s and lower 60s across the Big Country. No rain chances over the weekend as dry air remains in place for the area.

* Down The Road: Forecast models this morning are showing a break down in the overall pattern and a nice warming trend for next week with highs into the 70s by the middle part of the week but still no rain chances. We'll have to watch next week for any pattern changes beyond the mentioned. After all, this far out in the forecast models is out in "voodoo" land.

Have a great Thursday!
