Good Morning from KRBC Meteorologist Chris Whited...* Mostly cloudy to start the morning but we'll become partly cloudy as we progress later into the morning and into the afternoon. Isolated thunderstorms are possible at any time today but mainly the best chance would be into the afternoon when we get into the peak hours of heating to destablize the atmosphere. A few storms that do develop might produce some small hail and very heavy rainfall. A few of these storms will linger into the evening, then we go mostly cloudy overnight. Highs in the middle to upper 80s with lows tonight in the middle 60s.
* Warmer Temperatures Return: Partly cloudy for the later half of the week across West Central Texas. We will remain dry but the relative humidity values will remain high. Temperatures will warm back into the lower to middle 90s across the area with overnight lows into the middle and upper 60s.
* Memorial Day Weekend: Weather looks nice with partly cloudy and dry conditions but will remain hot with highs in the lower to middle 90s with overnight lows into the upper 60s. The humidity will also remain high across the area.
* Next Week: For now we stay dry but it will remain warm with highs in the lower to middle 90s with overnight lows in the upper 60s. Looks like we will remain humid as well.
* Drought Information: West Central Texas remains well above normal on rainfall this year so no drought issues here locally at the present time.
