Snow Ends Early, Sunny Later Today:

Good Morning from KRBC Meteorologist Chris Whited:

* Some light snow across the Big Country early this morning but weather conditions are not favorable for any weather problems. Temperatures have been holding in the middle and upper 30s and the snow band has slowly thinned out as it has moved southward. The NWS/San Angelo cancelled the Winter Weather Advisory earlier this morning based on the trend. There could still be a light dusting on grassy areas across the Big Country but ground temperatures are warm and roads are fine. Decreasing clouds into the morning as the snow ends, in fact sunshine will be back in full force by midday and into the afternoon. Highs today in the upper 40s and lower 50s with a cool northwest breeze. Tonight we'll drop into the middle and upper 30s under a mostly clear sky.

* Middle/Late Week: Warming back into the middle and upper 50s for Wednesday, lower 50s on Thursday and middle and upper 60s Friday. Lows will range from the middle 20s to the lower 30s. Mostly sunny to partly cloudy conditions expected each day.

* Weekend: Another cold front will arrive on late Saturday. There could be an isolated shower Saturday night or early Sunday morning but models are not in agreement over this solution. We'll still be in the 60s on Saturday but the front will cool us back into the 50s for Sunday. Lows each night into the middle 30s. Expect a partly cloudy sky over the weekend.
