With three days of severe weather things have quieted down. A strong cold front pushed through bringing chilly temperatures and dry air. Temperatures on Saturday topped out at 68 degrees but that was observed early in the morning before the front. Most of the day it was about 58 degrees and we are headed for the lower 40s.
The front was strong enough to produce snow in the southern plains and a freeze warning (indicated on the map by the light blue) for southwestern Texas. This cool air won’t last long. By Sunday evening winds will turn southeasterly as high pressure slides east and the return flow kicks in. There is another chance of rain Tuesday into Wednesday as the jet stream gets active over us once again and a front moves through. We’ll be watching this system again for the possibility of severe weather. Until then, enjoy your weekend!
