Quiet Weather This Week

From KRBC Chief Meteorologist Randy Turner ..

I'm writing this on Sunday evening and have enjoyed the beautiful sunshine and nice "almost Spring" weather we've had today.

As for this week, nothing like last week. Quiet is the word I'm using to describe now through Wednesday. On Thursday, a cold front drops through the area and by Friday, a slight 20 percent chance for rain looks in order, although probably very spotty.

The upper level pattern is zonal (running west to east) with no kinks or low pressure systems like we had last week. The main storm track stays across the northern plains so we basically get back to our dry pattern.

Temperatures will be warm this week, very Spring-like, slightly cooler Thurday into Friday, but still not bad.

Looking even further down the road, the forecast models are trying to paint some rain over our area again March 25th and 26th - so that gives us something to watch for the next 10 days.

Be sure to catch Chris Whited on West Texas Today each morning this week, I'll see you Sunday through Thursday evenings and Nance Burgin has the weather covered Friday and Saturday nights here on KRBC.

I hope you have a great week !!!
