Cooler Today, Warmth Returns Tomorrow:




Good Morning from Meteorologist Chris Whited...

* The cold front pushed through the Big Country yesterday evening and has brought the cooler air for today into the area. There were actually some strong storms to form on the front, but those storms developed between our eastern counties and Fort Worth and never affected our area.

* Cooler weather ahead today for your Tuesday with highs only into the 60s with the chilly start in the morning. We will recover quickly with another warm-up by Wednesday with highs back up into the the low 80s before another strong cold front arrives on Thursday bringing us back into the lower 60s for highs on Thursday.

* Fire Threat: No advisories in effect for the today, but most of the area has been placed under a Fire Weather Watch for Wednesday as we expect gusty south and southwest winds ahead of the cold front that arrives on Thursday.

* Rain Chances: The GFS forecast model is still the only one that is pointing at some rain chances along the cold front Thursday. I still have a small chance (20%) into the forecast package for Thursday based on that trent. Areas north of Interstate 20 will see that chance only, if we see anything at all with the front.

* Weekend: So far looks nice with highs near 80 on Saturday but a cold front comes in late Saturday and will cool us back into the upper 60s on Sunday. For right now it looks like things will be dry with mostly sunny conditions.

* Twitter: Remember you can follow us on twitter anytime for quick weather updates by visiting the KRBC Weather Twitter. You can also check on news updates via twitter also by visiting the Big Country Homepage Twitter site.

Have a great Tuesday...
