More Rain On The Way:

Good Morning from Meteorologist Chris Whited...

* After a nice rain late Wednesday and early this morning, not so much Chamber of Commerce weather today. Spotty showers will continue this morning mainly east of Abilene. The rest of the day will be cloudy and cold with areas of drizzle and perhaps a bit of fog. Highs will remain in the middle and upper 30s today with a chilly northeast wind. Rain chances increase for tonight and tomorrow as a main disturbance (low pressure center) works its way in from the southwestern states and helps generate more rain for the area.

* Winter Weather Threat: The chance for precipitation will increase after midnight tonight into Friday morning across the Big Country. Temperatures will be hovering right around 32 degrees for the areas west of Abilene, mainly the far western and northwestern counties. The precipitation moving into this area the temperatures may drop to just below freezing favoring the formation of freezing rain. We will have to watch for ice accumulations on bridges, overpasses and rural roadways tonight and early Friday.

* Down The Road: Rain comes to an end on Saturday and we begin to clear out and warm up on Sunday. Next week we return to our dry and warm pattern with highs in the 70s.

Have a great Thursday...
