Good Morning from Meteorologist Chris Whited...
* A weak cold front has slipped into the Big Country early this morning and could get a storm or two going later on and could keep a storm or two going into the day today. It will be cooler on Thursday with highs dropping back into the middle 80s across most of the area while areas south of the front could get a bit warmer. The front should wash out later today along Interstate 20. Overnight lows will dip into the 60s. Isolated storms are still possible on Friday.
* A strong cold front will move into the area on Saturday and will be the focal point for increased thunderstorm chances Saturday night and into Sunday morning. This will be the best rain chances for the area. Highs will drop into the 70s over the weekend with lows dipping into the 50s.
* Severe Weather Threat: The SPC has areas west of Sweetwater and Roby outlined in a "slight" risk for severe weather this afternoon. There is a "slight" risk on Saturday just to our south across the Concho Valley and Edwards Plateau but we can't rule out a strong to severe storm up this way over the weekend.
* Next Week: Cool mornings in the 50s start the week off but daytime highs will slowly climb back into the 80s. Forecast looks dry right now.
* Join us on television this morning for the lastst on your forecast as well as news from around Abilene and the Big Country on KRBC's Abilene Today at 6:00 AM and on Abilene Midday at 11:30 AM.
