Good Morning from Meteorologist Chris Whited...
* Exremely gusty winds will impact the area as we go into the day today. A Red Flag Warning and a High Wind Watch are in effect for the area. Winds will be out of the west and southwest between 25 to 35 miles per hour, with gusts up to 50 at times. Remain firewise and on alert! Highs will be warm once again well into the upper 80s across the area.
* A cold front move into the area tonight will cool us down for Friday and into the first part of the weekend with highs dropping back into the upper 60s and lower 70s across the area and lows into the 40s. It will still be windy behind the front most of the night but the winds should subside as we get toward daybreak on Friday. We'll warm back up into the middel 70s on Sunday.
* Weekend: The models are still painting a decent chance for thunderstorms across the area for late Saturday and into the day on Sunday. The model runs still has a strong low pressure sweeping right over West Central Texas on Sunday. The model has slowed the system down some so we could see rain chances throughout the day on Sunday. It now looks that sunrise services and the eggg hunts could be wet. Some of the storms could be severe across the area. We'll watch how things pan out over the next few days so stay tuned for updates.
* Next Week: For now it looks warm, windy and dry. The longer range models are trying to paint a small rain chance for the middle of the week but I didn't include it in the forecast package this morning.
