Good Morning from Meteorologist Chris Whited...
* Another warm day before big changes arrive. Look for partly cloudy conditions and for clouds to increase into the night. An isolated storm is possible this afternoon and evening. We could see an isolated storm overnight. Highs today near 90° but a cooler trend is coming this weekend.
* A strong cold front will move into the area on Saturday and will be the focal point for increased thunderstorm chances during the day on Saturday and into Sunday morning. The San Angelo Nation Weather Service is saying that rainfall amounts will average 1/2 to 1 inch with local amounts of 2 inches possible in stronger storms. 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 Edwards Plateau but we can't rule out a strong to severe storm up this way over Saturday. Clouds cover and beind behind the front should keep instability down for the Big Country.
* 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.
