Good Morning from KRBC Meteorologist Chris Whited...
* Another nice, cool morning across West Central Texas with temperatures into the 40s and lower 50s despite a bit of a breeze out there. Sunny, breezy and getting warmer today as high temperatures climb into the upper 80s and the lowr 90s on this Tuesday. Clear tonight and milder with lows in the upper 50s and lower 60s.
* A weak frontal boundary drops into the area tomorrow but nothing major with this other than a brief wind shift which might cut temperatures a degree or two. With high pressure still in control I think we still get a little warmer tomorrow and I am forecasting middle 90s for most areas. The hottest day will be on Thursday when everyone reaches the upper 90s and I think some areas may see their first 100° day of 2010! Lows at night stay warm in the upper 50s and lower 60s. A cold front arrives Thursday night and Friday morning knocking the heat wave out of here and cooling us down to below normal for May highs into the 70s and cooling overnight lows back into the low 50s.
* The Weekend: Partly cloudy on Saturday with highs in the middle 70s and still a few clouds in the area Saturday night with lows in the upper 50s. Things start to warm back up on Sunday for Mother's Day as highs climb back into the 80s. There is a slight chance for a thunderstorm or two as well on Sunday as a system works across the region.
* Drought Information: West Central Texas remains above normal on rainfall this year so no drought issues here locally at the present time.
