What a surprise...it looks like clouds will be coming in for the work week. In the last half hour, we have watched temperatures cool off enough for low clouds to form over parts of Abilene and Sweetwater. These clouds were not originally in the forecast but they're obviously here. Based on the latest weather data, these clouds will not be in town for very long.
We should be sunny by the lunch hour and well into the afternoon. Temperatures by then will approach the upper 60's and lower 70's with light winds from the north.
Tonight we'll cool off to the upper 40's with a crystal clear sky above and calm winds down below.
Tomorrow, we do not anticipate a repeat performance from Mother Nature. We expect no clouds at all and sunshine to dominate the sky again. High's for Wednesday will be warmer in the mid 70's.
We'll keep seeing the sunshine all week long. Eventually the weather pattern will begin to change early next week as a ridge breaks down and an upper level trough comes in from the west. This change in the flow should lead to a small chance of rain and cooler temperatures.
That is it from the weather center. Have a wonderful day and DON'T FORGET TO VOTE!!!
