Feel of Fall in the Air Tuesday

From KRBC Chief Meteorologist Randy Turner .... (Sunday night update)

Like many of you, I'm watching the Cowboy game on KRBC .. but with a little time here at halftime, I'll let you know what kind of weather to expect this week.

Monday is going to be warm and windy. Highs around 90 degrees. Southwest wind 20 to 30 at times, all in advance of a strong cold front, the strongest front we've seen since the Spring. This front should dive into the northern Big Country in the late afternoon, through Abilene by sunset or so, and through the rest of the area overnight.

When the front gets here, thunderstorms should develop .. a few storms could be severe with hail and damaging wind. Rain and storms should continue into Monday night and on into Tuesday.

Wind will be gusty from the north Monday night and Tuesday as cloudy skies and intermittent rain continues. It will be very cool on Tuesday, highs only in the middle 60's.

Then, on Wednesday morning, you'll need a jacket as temperatures drop to near 50 degrees !!

I'm keeping rain and cloudy skies in the forecast Wednesday through Saturday as highs stay in the 70's mid week into the weekend with overnight lows in the 50's.

ENJOY !!!
