Looking Stormy This Easter Weekend

From KRBC Chief Meteorologist Randy Turner ...

The first matter of business is the WIND, again, on Thursday. It will be gusty from the southwest and eventually the west at 30 to 40mph which presents another high wildfire danger.

The second matter of business is our potential for thunderstorms and possibly severe weather this weekend. A low pressure area will drop through the southwestern U.S. by Friday and cross over our area from late Saturday into Easter Sunday. As it does so, we should see a line of thunderstorms develop across West Texas and move east Saturday night into Easter Sunday.

It may be wet for those Easter Sunrise services and probably on the windy side. The storms should move east out of our area by Sunday afternoon. After that, back to a dry weather pattern.

Temperatures will be in the middle 80's on Thursday followed by the 70's Friday through the weekend. I don't see any freezing temperatures again over the next seven days.
