It's GRRRREEEAAATTTTT !

From KRBC Chief Meteorologist Randy Turner....

Remember Tony the Tiger? Famous for promoting his cereal by saying "they're GREAT"!

Well, the same can be said of our weather. It's absolutely great for the next couple days.

On Tuesday and Wednesday, expect highs from 80 to 85. (don't forget to we your green Tuesday, it's St. Patrick's Day)

A cold front will arrive during the day Thursday and bring more clouds with it. Highs from 70 to 74 can be expected from Thursday through the weekend.

Your chance for rain is not good this week, I'll leave a slight chance in the forecast Friday into Saturday although it doesn't appear any organized areas can form, mainly hit and miss spotty stuff.

Long range, forecast models are advertising a better chance for rain next week, around the 25th and then again around the 31st. It would be nice to see some consistent rain every week or so to help get us past this drought.

SPRING official arrives in good ole Abilene, USA at 6:44am this Friday morning, March 20th.

I don't know about you, but I'm ready for some warmer weather. But don't count out the cold just yet.
