SHOWERS LIKELY BEFORE NOON; SUNNY, COOL DAYS AHEAD… Rain will continue to be possible over the next several hours as an area of low pressure continues to slide by our area to the south. High temperatures on this Tuesday will be in the mid-50s. Temperatures will decline into the 30s overnight. Most spots will have overnight lows in the low- to mid-30s by daybreak on Wednesday. Some locales north of US84 may dip to near or just below the freezing mark tomorrow morning. Clouds will clear out overnight, giving way to sunny skies on Wednesday. Our next rain chance happens on Friday as a cold front moves across the region. Saturday night looks to be quite cold with a chance of temperatures dipping into the low-20s. A few more Tuesday forecast notes are below.
RAIN MOVES OUT LATER TODAY… Showers will continue to move east over the next several hours. Most of the local area will likely be dry by 3PM. Thunderstorms will continue to be confined to the northern Gulf of Mexico as there basically is no surface-based instability to support thunderstorms across land areas today. High temperatures will be in the mid-50s today.
MAINLY SUNNY ON WEDNESDAY AND THURSDAY… Seasonal, cool weather is ahead for Wednesday and Thursday with mostly sunny skies expected each day. High temperatures will be in the 50s with morning lows in the 30s.
RAIN POSSIBLE FRIDAY; COLD AIR MOVES IN SATURDAY… A few widely scattered showers will be possible on Friday as a cold front approaches our area from the north. Highs on Friday will be in the 50s. Much colder air moves in on Friday night into Saturday. Overnight lows by Saturday morning will be in the mid- to upper-20s.
HARD FREEZE POSSIBLE SATURDAY NIGHT INTO SUNDAY… The coldest night of the week will likely be Saturday night into Sunday morning. Overnight lows will likely be in the low- to mid-20s in many spots with temperatures below freezing for 10-12 hours. If this scenario verifies, it would qualify as a “hard freeze.” A Hard Freeze Watch (and subsequently a Hard Freeze Warning) will likely be needed for Saturday night, if forecast trends continue.
